problem with installation

[KC]

Hi there,

I've run into a problem during (actually before) installation.  It's probably a common one, but I couldn't find a word about it on freebsd.org.  I boot from the CD (version is 5.0), but when it gets to the "probing for devices" screen, it hangs.  I disconnected my internal Zip drive, but that did absolutely nothing.  I'm really excited about using FreeBSD and I would truly appreciate any help you folks can provide.

Cheers,
Casey
