When I try to install FreeBSD 2.2.1, it doesn't work.
I tried just doing a minimum install in the FreeBSD Installation program and it still doesn't work.  I am installing over ftp using ftp.freebsd.org.

It gets stuck at the part where it links the kernel.  What can I do to fix this problem?
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to install FreeBSD again.

 That's not very helpful at all.  Do you really want to tell us that
 you have already installed everything, and are now compiling and
 linking your custom kernel?  I doubt.
 
 If not, what else do you mean?  What did you do, what did you get, and
 where is your problem?
