Hi All,

I am installing 5.2.1 on a Compaq Presario R3000. I made the CDs with Roxio
Classic Creator on the Windows side.

The machine gets to the boot select screen okay, but no matter what boot option
I go with the machine powers down. I've tried option 2 (FreeBSD without ACPI)
several times.

So, what do I do now? This machine is hardly my first choice, but it's a gift
and I'm stuck with it. It's got nice hardware, but there just seems to be no way
around the Compaq curse...
