Such as proble does not exist with Linux. >Description: For years, I am trying to install freeBSD on my Qcer qspire 1304xc laptop computer. While using FreeBsd 4.x, the boot process stops for the following reason : unable to find image ( kernel.flp ). with the FreeBSD 5.x the installation goes normaly and stops at 11% of the packages installation ! >How-To-Repeat: use a qcer qspire 1304 xc computer, boot with the cdrom of weathe FreeBSD 4.x or FreeBSD 5.x and the bug will occur. >Fix: I think the problem comes from the fact on this computer, the cdrom is scsi and by default the ide is expected. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: State-Changed-From-To: open->feedback State-Changed-By: gavin State-Changed-When: Tue Feb 19 17:15:30 UTC 2008 State-Changed-Why: To submitter: Firstly, I'm sorry that this PR has sat for so long without anyone looking at it.
