RE: Installation from Hard Disk
The Chapter 2 Installing FreeBSD of the official FreeBSD Handbook describes all possible variants. The are some for you: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install.html In case you tried them but got errors, please show those errors and we will be glad to help you proceed in FreeBSD installing. I have read Chapter 2 of the HandBook, but for me there isn't solution there. Keep in mind, I haven't: cd device, floppy device, or internet connection during the installation's process. My problem is the boot. With linux I can start the installation from HD using only the cd's iso image (placed on the HD), the bootloader Grub (already installed), and two files (initrd and kernel) that start the installation process. With linux I can install another linux_Operative_Sistem without any external devices (cd, floppy, or internet). For instance, in my file /boot/grub/menu.lst there is these commands -- ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: Suse_Start_Installation (inst-linux) ### title Suse_Start_Installation (inst-linux) root (hd0,2) kernel /boot/inst-linux root=/dev/ram3 vga=791 ramdisk_size=32000 initrd /boot/inst-initrd -- I want do the same thing with FreeBSD.

Installation from Hard Disk
Hi I want install BSD6.2 from Hard Disk. My HD is partitioned in this way: on the MBR there is Grub bootloader; 2 partition are empty; and on the 3rd partition there is Suse 10.1 . I already have downloaded the ISO image (two iso), and if is necessary I can uncompressed they in a folder on the HD. With linux I can run the installer (placed on the HD) with the bootloader. Can I do something as this also with BSD6.2?? This is important for me, I have not CD device or floppy device. Thanks _ Conosci Doretta?
