Boot problems
So I Installed netBSD on an old pentium 1 laptop I had laying around with 32MB ram. The problem is when it goes to boot it hangs on boot: and then I don't know what to type. If I do boot hd0a:netbsd the text turns green but eventually it hangs after attempting to load. I used to use a boot command that seemed to work but now I don't remember what it is.
I also installed FreeBSD on another pc onto the HDD since the installer would not work on this old pc. But when I put it back in it also hangs on boot:
Something must be up with how this old pc uses mbr with hdd? I am not sure. I am using CF to IDE converter if that makes a different. I am also fairly new with BSD but have had more linux experience.
