- So, I did something really stoopid over the weekend: I used disklabel to
- repartition my hard disk (Seagate Wren III), then tried to reinstall 386bsd
- using the install command on the dist.fs disk.
-
- install tells me that 386bsd is already installed, and asks me if I want to re-
- install. When I respond 'y', it loops. Same for 'Y', 'yes', 'Yes', you get
- the idea.
-
- Does anybody out there have a dist.fs on which this problem has been fixed?
-
- Thanks,
