Re: 7.1 64 bit
Hi everyone, I have a mixed update: I was able to get it running, but once it starts, it gets stuck.

I do not know exact reason of that problem , but i can say the following : Another approach may be to install 7.1 i386 ISO . If 32-bits works . but 64-bits does not work . it may mean that a hardware part is not usable by the 64-bits operating system . If 32-bits even does not work ( we know that 6.4 32-bits is working ) this may mean that in your PC there is an older hardware which its support is or has been removed from the operating system . Another approach would be removal of components from ISA slots and then try to boot the 64-bits operating system . If it can boot , then add the ISA components one-by-one to isolate which component is causing the lock up . If even this does not work : Then best action may be to use 6.4 or if it is possible to replace the older hardware by a newer ( or compatible ) hardware . In new main boards there is no ISA bus slots . ISA slots components approximately can NOT be auto-detected easily because they do not have such a related circuitry . There is another point : Some manufacturers are producing parts which can only work by a famous widely used operating system by cutting some electronic circuitry parts . Such components can NOT work under Unix or Linux . During selection of parts it may be useful to check whether at least it can work under Linux if BSD is not mentioned at all . Thank you very much .

If the checksum is different, then you got some corruption and need to download the image again. My guess is that the software you used didn't burn the iso correctly.

Any hints on how to check? http://www.pc-tools.net/win32/md5sums/ First you need to isolate the problem. As someone else suggested, try booting another computer with the disk. Check BIOS boot order to make sure it checks cd drive first. Try another bootable disk in system. I've seen lockups in booting off install disc, but the only situations in which a system would fail to attempt to boot off of it is when either media or drive is bad. If all else fails I believe there is a process to boot from flash drive and install via that method. -- Adam Vandemore Systems Administrator IMED Mobility (605) 498-1610 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
