newbie help, bad kernel?
Help I was installing from a cd and the system locked up I rebooted and the screen says: FreeBSD/i386 BOOT Default:0:ad(0.a)/kernel boot: OR every other time it says something to the effect of cant load kernel and cant load kernel.old type help for a list of commands. I told the BIOS to look at the CD drive first hoping it would boot from the CD but that doesnt work. The last thing I was doing before it locked up was it asked what I wanted my bootstrap to be full BSD or dual Win/BSD then went on to the install and it locked up. Is there something I can do do start over? -- Things I learned from Star Wars Do not use targeting computers to blow up a Death Star. Trust the voices in your head.

ISTR having this same problem with one computer: it would prefer the hard disk for booting no matter what the bios settings were. i *think* i solved the problem by putting the disk into another pc, and wiping it from there. -- If you cc me or take the list(s) out completely I'll most likely ignore your message.

Thanks, I was hoping to save that as a last resort. -- Things I learned from Star Wars Do not use targeting computers to blow up a Death Star. Trust the voices in your head.
