Have you verified the checksum of the ISO image after you downloaded it?
What happens if you don't install ports? (you can always do it later).
Yep. Checksums are ok.
If i just install a minimal system as Brandon suggested, the
installation process works properly (except that disk geometry allegedly
wrong, but the system-guessed values are correct for LBA mode).
How do you know that the network card doesn't work? If you go to the
emergency shell (alt-F4, IIRC) and type 'ifconfig', does it show a
network interface with 'media: Ethernet'?
Yes. The card is detected and also configured while the install process,
but every try to connect to a ftp server fails.
Sadly, another problem occured after rebooting. The slave harddisk had
debian on it before the installation of BSD with grub written into the
MBR. The problem is, i seems that bsd writes its own bootloader into th
MBR of the slave harddisk. So grub is still in the master's MBR but the
config files are of course not addressable.
So is it possible to instruct the sysinstall to write its bootloader to
the mbr of the master harddisk and detect and conigure winxp for dual boot?
Thanks
Timm
