I'm hoping this is the right list to post to.

I have successfully downloaded and installed iso images for FreeBSD 4.2
through 4.6 using my laptop for downloading and burning and a Tiny Pentium
III computer as my server. I have been very impressed with how easy it was
to get FreeBSD up and running each time. But my luck just turned...

I just downloaded and burned the 4.7-1 iso image and burned it successfully.
I checked the file layout and it closely matches the previous CDs I've
burned. But, when booting up my server, there is a pause as the system
searches for the boot loader on the CD...Not found. It then proceeds to boot
from my existing 4.6 setup on the hard disk.

I plugged my 4.6 CD back in and it booted off the CD fine. Has something
changed in 4.7? I've burned 4 different 4.7 CDs all with the same result.

Thanks.

P.S. The only real difference on my laptop between now and when I burned 4.6
is that I switched to NTFS disk partitions under Windows 2000. But I can't
image that how a CD is burned gets affected by NTFS vs. FAT32.
