Re: [freebsd-questions] Re: Error at start up

2003-08-24 Thread James Igoe
Hello,

I have taken a look at the errata and I haven't seen anything that would 
seem problematic with my hardware. The error arises during bootup, and it 
notes about vga0 on the the previous line. I take this to mean that it is 
having problems with my video card. I have an Intel i810 vid card. This is a 
dell laptop, 1ghz celeron, 384mb ram, 20gb ide drives.

Any thoughts that you have would be great.

Regards,
Raine

Check the release errata?

Most likely you just copied the .iso files to the CD-ROM, instead of
burning them as an image.  You can verify this by checking the contents
of the CDs; if there's only one large file, that's the problem.
How to restore a .iso file to a CD is dependent on your CD-recording
software; for example, with Roxio software on Windows, you should be
able to right-click on the .iso file and choose Record to CD.

Hello,

I am unable to install freebsd with the ISOs that were provided on the 
freebsd ftp site. I have burned them onto a cd and I have attempted to boot 
from them. However, I have found that they will not boot. I am working on a 
i386 architecture, using both a p3 450mhz, 384MB RAM, ameritech bios box and 
a celeron 1ghz 384MB RAM with a dell bios laptop. I have checked the boot 
sequences and have corrected them so thatg they boot fromt he cd rom.  I'm 
sure this is just me being rather stupid in some way, but, any guidance that 
you could provide would be lovely.
