[aclug-L] FreeBSD install problems

[Jesse Kaufman <glandix@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

i know it's kinda OT for a LUG, but i'm trying to install FreeBSD
4.1.1-RELEASE from a downloaded iso burned to cd on an old crapperd hell i
got from my wife's parents (free, of course!)...  however, i keep getting
the following error(s):

ad0: WRITE command timeout - resetting
ata0: resetting devises .. done
ad0: READ command timeout - resetting
ata0: reseting devices .. done
....

what perplexes me even more is that DOS6.22 installs w/o a problem (from
floppies)...  i scandisk'd the drive and got no errors, and the CDROM is
from my P200 box...  (the orig CDROM was driven by the snd card and there
is only a primary IDE port... no secondary...  told you it's a PB!: ^ )

any ideas?

<<< Vim is a REAL man's text editor.  I don't know why anyone else would
    even bother with sissy programs like emacs, or even worse...  pico!  >>>
