Date: Fri, 31 Jan 1997 10:24:18 -0500 Organization: AT&T WorldNet Services Lines: 23 Message-ID: <32F20EA2.2E00@worldnet.att.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: 207.116.112.5 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 2.02Gold (WinNT; I) Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:34795 Ive downloaded the 2.1.6 tree and burned it onto a cd. During install, I select "CDROM" install, and finally when it attempts to extract the files, it tells me that it doesn't appear to be a walnut creek cd and it can't find the version info. ug, no install. my directory tree is /freebsd/bin /freebsd/docs etc... what am I missing to have the boot floppy recognized the cd as the correct walnut creek cd? it seems like its looking for additional files or a volume stamp on the CD (in addition to the distribution on the ftp tree) any help greatly appreciated. -pete
