What am I missing here? Burning the iso image of install45.iso does not create a bootable disk. This is not a very good beginning for someone who has just decided to trash FreeBSD. FBSDs disks boot with no problem... -- HervC) Kempf: Pour sauver la planC(te, sortez du capitalisme.

Patch for sysupgrade of a disc constrained net4801
