Subject: Trouble installing 4.10 on laptop - "cannot find kernel"
To: freebsd-mobile at freebsd.org

I am attempting to install 4.10 on my Acer laptop. After booting from
the install CD I get a message stating "cannot find kernel". I get
this error whether I use the miniinstall or the full 2 disc CD
install. Browsing the CDs I can see that the kernel does exist on the
disk.

Does anyone have a suggestion where I should start to solve this?

Thanks!
