 Which image did you use? By chance the boot.flp? That one is
 for 2.88Mbyte floppy drives.
 
 Could you do us a favour and try again on that specific machine and boot
 with two boot floppies created from kern.flp and mfsroot.flp for version
 3.2-RELEASE, available from 
 
 ftp://www.de.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.2-RELEASE/floppies
 ftp://www.de.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.2-RELEASE/floppies/kern.flp
 ftp://www.de.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.2-RELEASE/floppies/mfsroot.flp
 
 If you have a 2.88Mbyte floppy drive, also with the boot.flp?
 
 ftp://www.de.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.2-RELEASE/floppies/boot.flp
 
 Thanks a lot in advance.

 Just a remark, you excluded freebsd-gnats address from your reply. That
 address keeps track of the audit trail for your bug report.
 
 The other machine that you installed 3.0 one, was it a Compaq as well?
 Was it EISA? Same NIC's?
 
 We would be very interested in hearing more of your success of failure
 using 3.2.

 no, totally differenct machine. NIC is a 3com 3c905b-tx ... works very well.

 sure ... i'll inform you.

 well, after a very long time, i have found time to install freebsd 3.2-release
 on that compaq machine ... well, that should i say, i worked right out of the
 box. i used the two 1.44 mb bootdisk and even when not disabling unneeded 
 device drivers, freebsd boots without any problem.
 
 there may be a problem on the old compaq machines, if some network card use
 irq 9, so using this interrupt should be avoided.
 
 current configiartion:
 compaq prosignia 486 w/pentium overdrive
 88 mb ram
 1x adaptec aha-2742T scsi host adapter (w/floppy diabled)
 1x adaptec aha-1740 scsi host adapter
 2x 3com 3c579 etherlink iii NICs
 
 i am using softuddates and vinum (one volume striped over four disks, one
 volume mirrored, 2 disks) and the system runs stable, therefore i think this
 problem report can be closed.
 
 so long,
 olli
