Well, I haven't seen this in the FAQ so here it is : I can install FreeBSD with no problem. However, when I try to add the pre-built packages, tons of errors occur. For example, I have the "medium error .. into:1a541:asc11, 5L-EC unrecoverable and the system crashes. I can boot freebsd fine, but I can't add any packages. Have people experienced the same problem? Is this a driver problem since I have tried a second SCSI disk and the same problem occurs. On the other hand, NEXTSTEP and NT are running fine. Pointers appreciated. -- ________________ Tin-Yau Fung, tyf@ucsee.eecs.berkeley.edu NeXTmail is best!
