Re: OpenBSD2.6 failled install?



How did you create the boot floppy? From Microsoft DOS or Win, you need to
use the "RAWRITE" utility. From OpenBSD, use the "dd" command.
NB: the floppy needs to be defect free or it just won't work.

Follow the installation instructions in the "INSTALL.*" files on the FTP
site: ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.6/i386/
