    I've burned the image of the disc using Nero and stuck it into my old PC
    specs;
    266 mhz
    96 MB RAM
    8 GB HD (Standard IDE)
    52X CD-ROM drive (I can boot off of other discs, and I've tried other drives)

    When I boot, I get the shell loading screen (BTX loader) but shortly after I get that screen, the machine reboots and its an endless cycle.  I've tried other cables, and followed what I can from this page; http://wiki.pfsense.com/wikka.php?wakka=BootTroubleShooting
    But still nothing works.  Anyone know how to fix this?

    I´ll tried to boot in other PCs and works great…  ???

      I have an old acer machine here as well that doesn't work with freebsd at all. kernel panic at boot. We have added everything that came to our mind to the page you mentioned. There are some components that freebsd doesn't like at all it seems. If you find a way to boot that machine please add suggestions to the wiki.  :-\
