(mine doesn't) Date: 15 May 1995 17:26:02 GMT Organization: Silicon Graphics, Inc. Lines: 12 Distribution: world Message-ID: <3p82ra$m2n@fido.asd.sgi.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: barracuda.engr.sgi.com As of yesterday, I have started to run FreeBSD on my PC (AMD 486DX2 3V, ASUS SP3G SCSI/PCI, 1Gb Seagate HD, 16MB RAM) but I can't get it to boot reliably. It often hangs in the CDROM driver, failing an assertion at line 5342 of ...? (I left the details at home. I am using the Apr 25 snapshot of FreeBSD 2.0, I think). The CDROM drive is a Chinon 535 internal (2X, caddy, SCSI). Has anybody used this drive successfully? Thanks ---Luigi
