Hi, I am installing FreeBSD from a DOS partition and everything goes smoothly until I try
to transfer the files from the DOS partition to the freeBSD partition. When I commit, I get
'write failure on transfer' error message. I'm very new to this, and I can't figure out why this
won't work. Any ideas?
Thanx, Emilie
