Hello,
I'm running FreeBSD 6.2. I want to create customized boot media, the
kern floppy image for sure and possibly the mfsroot disk, i would like to
know how they are made. I've found items, ut they seem to be 4.x specific.
Does anyone have this for 6.x?
Thanks.
Dave.

Having multiple linux installs on my machines, I've had to use boot floppies
to boot some of em. I'm not too good at configuring GRUB or LiLo to chainload
to other bootloaders at the moment, so, is it possible when installing
FreeBSD to make a boot floppy. I hav'nt install
So I finally got up the courage to try FreeBSD... I
got some CDs from osdisc.com, but my computer cant
boot of off CDs (its just too old).. anyone know where
i can find the boot floppies?

The boot floppies are on the 1st CD. Refe

As I mentioned before, the boot floppies start to launch sysinstall, and
then everything locks up.
Is there
t bet is to put more memory in and see how that goes first.

5.0 is stil not production material, so re-read the early adopters guide and
be prepared to go to work if you really want 5.0 on this machine. You may be
better off upgrading to 4.7rel or 4.8 when it comes out.

I successfully installed version 4-3 from boot floppies a couple years
ago...
Version 4.3 still boots fine...
This happens even if I disconnect the HD...
I've enabled and disabled most of the BIOS settings (ports, PNP OS, ...)
