Hey! ---
Abstract: I'm trying to install FreeBSD on a brand new HP Compaq. But whether I install it with BootMgr or the standard MBR, the computer won't enter the FreeBSD boot process. Instead, it reboots itself in an infinite loop. --- Thanks for the reply so far. FreeBSD still won't boot. > You might want to consider installing a standard MBR during the installation > (so not the FreeBSD bootloader). Then only FreeBSD will boot if you have > selected the drive as the primary drive in the bios (assuming you have two > disks). If you need your machine badly but can't boot Windows yet? Just > select the other drive in the bios and you're ready to go :) I've now tried both the standard MBR and the FreeBSD bootloader. Both cause my computer to reboot in an infinite loop. > If everything is running, install GRUB or LILO, whatever you prefer. Works > better in some cases, and looks nicer as well :) > > Cheers, > > Jorn Hope to see you again, Jorn :) -- j.
