When I boot off the floppy for FreeBSD installation evrything works fine and I can install with no reported errors. On reboot when the option comes up F1 for DOS or F2 for BSD and I press F2 it sets the default to be F? and asks the question again. I have gone into fdisk and set the active partition to the BSD patrition and rebooted but to no avail. Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated Bill
