The only way I've found to make my installation working is the =20
following :
On an empty hard drive, installation of a previous 3.99.21 version cd =20=
( without GCC4 )
Boot it
Change CD to the newest one ( 3.99.21 with GCC4 )
=46rom (cdrom)/i386/binary/sets/
uncompress all sys packages ( base / comp / etc / games / man / =20
misc / ... ... ... ) to the root directory.
before rebooting, change rc_configured to YES in rc.conf
reboot & check or reconfigure the system
Thats the hard way :D LOL
