Welcome to
daemonforums.org mate.
I have FreeBSD 7.1-BETA/PRERELEASE on Dell D630 with working fine.
Get that one and try again:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/sn...i386-disc1.iso
Personally I used 7.0-RELEASE for install and then upgraded to 7.1-BETA but that should not matter.
I created this partition scheme:
Code:
/ 512m
swap 2g
/var 2g
/usr 10g
/tmp 512m --> mounted in SWAP by /etc/rc.conf
