Hi Al,
thanks for pointing me to safe mode install. That I will probably try
tomorrow.
The day ended up in havoc: I tried to boot a floppy to do an ASUS
BIOS upgrade and somehow messed with the power cable.
A big flash occurred originating from the power supply. I opened the
power supply, found a blown fuse, ran to the electronics store,
bought a new fuse (+ one in reserve), inserted the fuse, tried the
power supply, with connections off and a firework, prematurely - your
presidential elections aren't finished yet - , developed in front of
my face. Will continue tomorrow, when America has a new president.
Back at the problem: I chose 3. safe mode to no avail. Still get this
acd0: FAILURE - READ BIG MEDIUM ERROR asc=0x11 ascq=0x00
I now tried with a 7.0 BETA Boot CD (which I had laying around from
possibly another fruitless attempt in the past to
update that system from 5.1 or something to 7.x). Same picture. Hangs on
this
acd0: FAILURE - READ BIG MEDIUM ERROR asc=0x21 ascq=0x00
(asc=0x21 at this time FWIW).
Please help me in getting FreeBSD onto this machine iin whatever way.
