First of all thanks to those of you that pointed me in the right
direction to my previous problem. As it were my SCSI adapter had the ISA
compatibility DISABLED. I set it to Primary, wich gave it a port address
starting at 330H. After this I was able to boot and set the freebsd
slices. I tried to install from my dos partition. I had the files in the
correct c:\freebsd directories. It started installing then told me it
not find the root image on sd01, then it tried the flooppy. Where is the
root image supposed to be? What is going on?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
