Causey) Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Subject: Can't get XWin to install Date: 17 Feb 1995 00:05:06 GMT Organization: Case Western Reserve Univ. Cleveland, Ohio (USA) Lines: 13 Message-ID: <3i0p7i$btd@usenet.INS.CWRU.Edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: lal.eeap.cwru.edu With some help from this newgroup, I got FreeBSD to load from my CDRom drive. Now the problem is when I try to install X. Using the included installation program, I can install all the options I want (the binsist, games, man pages, ...), but when I try to install X, I either get a checksum error or the computer locks up when it begins installation (It just sits there with the install message on the screen, no cdrom activity, no hard drive activity.). Do I have a bad CD or am I just not doing something correctly? Greg Causey gcc@pris.eeap.cwru.edu
