I need help on installation

2009-12-30 Thread Roger Agraviador
I found an old pc that I just reformatted the HDD using G parted, now that I
try to boot from a Free BSD CD (7.2 release) the Intel chip gives me an
error message that the system boot failed and asks me to insert a system
disk which I do not have, how do I go about that because I virtually cannot
install any operating system.

Do I have to install a boot loader like GRUB2? If so How do I go about that?
Since I have found no iso image of GRUB2 to burn into a live cd.

Downloading and Burning Free BSD

2009-12-10 Thread Roger Agraviador
I clicked the ISO link and I was brought to a directory, this to be exact (
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/7.2/)

Once I have downloaded all Iso Images do I burn the 'boot only.iso' file on
one DVD or CD only? or do I burn that along with 'disc1.iso', and how do I
go about burning the rest of the files in that directory once I have
downloaded them?
