how to make that work? when the sytsem dumps *.core (multiple dumps) on boot. and yes i do the "shutdown -h now" before reset & changes to cmos to get back to windows (seperate HD)
>Description:
The least stable OS I have ever tried! Ocasionally FreeBSD runs the first boot after new install (I even remove the NONDOS partition mount a DOS partition, format & scandisk) between re-installations) I've been using DOS since version 2.1. Never boots without DUMPS the on the third boot and half the time the second boot fail miserably.
The system is a FIC VA-503+ motherboard, AMD K6-2 3D NOW 500Mhz, 128 Meg RAM. 8.4 gig ATA HD as C: and a 2.5 gig HD (where I attempt to run FreeBSD) as D: or ATwhatever1.

>How-To-Repeat:
Install Freebsd 4.0 i386.

Maybe Linux works!
>Fix:
Continue to use windows
