Trying to get FreeBSD installed off of CD, i'm running into some
difficulties.  (I've already tried to post this here once, if i was
successful (you see, i doubt i was) you may remember the problem.) 
After trying all the other suggestions from the manual & FAQ, i "-c"'ed
the boot disk and was informed that i had 21 device conflicts (25 when
booting from the Atapi disk.)  Here's the problem... I don't know what
components are inside the machine!  (And the case is on damn tight. 
Yeah, i know.  I've never had that problem before, either.)
	Suggestions?
