Probs installing FreeBSD 6.2

2007-03-08 Thread s.moyzis
Well,  everyone, I've decided to put FreeBSD on the back burner indefinetly, 
until I can get a dedicated box.
No matter what I try, it won't boot from the Disk1 ISO image (BIOS IS 
configured).  Won't boot from the boot disk either.  Maybe I'll go back and try 
a re-install of Windows NT 4.0, at least THAT worked, 'up to a point'  My 
thanks to everyone for their help and support, I really appreciate it.  Thanks,

Steve

Problems installing FreeBSD

2007-03-08 Thread s.moyzis
Hi,  I'm trying to install FreeBSD from
 ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-i386/6.2
I downloaded all the files to a folder on my 2nd HD (Primary is C: 80 Gb 
Windows XP SP2, 2nd external 250 Gb HD has 2 partitons, G: which contains the 
entire C:drive for backup, and a partition H: for FreeBSD.  Anyway, The Boot CD 
doesn't boot (yes, I changed the BIOS sequence), and the Disk1 and Disk2 won't 
fit on a CD.  I'm new at this, but I do know Windows and DOS inside and out.  
Question is, what do I do next?
everytime I try to 'open' the file(s) Roxio CD Creator opens up.  Help!   
Thanks,
Steve

System freezes on install

2007-03-07 Thread s.moyzis
I have a copy of FreeBSD 4.4, when I try to install from the boot CD, or the 2 
floppies, the keyboard/system freezes on Kernal Configuration Menu.  I also 
have 2 HD's, an internal 80 Gb for Windows XP, and a 250 Gb external HD for C; 
backup and a partition for FreeBSD.  It's a one year old 'puter.  Any ideas?  
Thank you,

Steve Moyzis
