I've installed FreeBSD 3x now with no success. Can someone PLEASE shed some
light on why, after a fresh install I get the error CAN NOT MOUNT ROOT and
my only option is to reboot? I'm using a 3.2 gig HD but I've disabled PNP
in the BIOS and I'm using CHS instead of LBA translation. What else could
be causing this? Any and all help would be HUGELY appreciated!!

Please Email me dirrectly: jserafini@citylinq.com
