Once you get into the setup menu go to options and change the release from 4.9 to 4.1.1-RELEASE and when you go to install it should pull the 4.1.1 down instead. The main problem you'll find is a finding a FTP mirror that still has the 4.1.1 binaries sitting around. I can't even guess if such a beast exists. --roop ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I received different errors (panic: going nowhere without my init!). Maybe the disks were bad. When I remembered and used the 4.1.1 images it went ok.

Boot Floppy Images
I tried to install 4.1.1 using the 4.9 boot images. Is this possible, can I use a different version of the boot images or are they always the same binary images?
