Thanks in advance for your help. I am a newbie trying to install FreeBSD for
the first time. I have an HP desktop computer with 64MB of SDRAM, a 12 GB hard
drive and a Pentium II processor running at 333 MHz. I am trying to put
FreeBSD 6.2 on this machine but have not had any luck. I've read the
documentation, but stil can't seem to figure out what to do.
I downloaded the ISO mage for the "bootonly" disk and checked that it using
checksum.md5, then burned a disk image using InfrRecorder to a fresh CD-R. I
set the bios on my HP to boot from the CDROM drive and put the disk in. It
walks me through the installation process but never gives me a chance to exit.
I select the Standard installation but get stuck shortly thereafter when I try
to tell it to use the option to set up for a single user using the X-Window
system. It won't let me select multiple elements like bin and library. I get
stuck and then it never completes and won't let me out of the setup screen
series.
Please let me know if I am not providing enough information above. I welcome
any help. Thanks.
