重要:
默认情况下， 在您看到下面这条信息之前， 安装程序不会对硬盘数据做任何修改：
Your changes will now be written to disk. If you have chosen to overwrite existing data, it will be PERMANENTLY ERASED. Are you sure you want to commit your changes?
在此之前均可安全退出， 抑或您担心进行了某些错误的配置， 也可以直接关闭电源。
若要使用 第 3.3.5 节 “准备安装介质” 所述的 USB 记忆棒引导， 则应在开机前将其插入计算机。
若要使用 CDROM 引导， 则应在开机后立刻将其放入计算机。
根据所使用的安装介质， 选择从 CDROM 或 USB启动。 在 BIOS 设置中， 可以选择特定的引导设备。 大多数系统还可以在启动时选择引导设备， 通常需要按 F10、 F11、 F12 或 Escape 键。
如果您的计算机正常启动并加载了现有的操作系统， 那么请检查：
USB 记忆棒插入过晚或 CDROM 放入过晚， 请将其拔下或取出， 然后重新启动计算机并再次尝试。
BIOS 设置错误， 请重新设置。
BIOS 不支持从当前介质启动； 可以使用 Plop Boot Manager， 它能够让老式计算机支持 CD 或 USB 启动。
FreeBSD 将开始启动。 如果使用的是CDROM， 则会看到类似这样的显示（版本信息可以忽略）：
Booting from CD-ROM... 645MB medium detected CD Loader 1.2 Building the boot loader arguments Looking up /BOOT/LOADER... Found Relocating the loader and the BTX Starting the BTX loader BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.02 Consoles: internal video/keyboard BIOS CD is cd0 BIOS drive C: is disk0 BIOS drive D: is disk1 BIOS 636kB/261056kB available memory FreeBSD/i386 bootstrap loader, Revision 1.1 Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf /boot/kernel/kernel text=0x64daa0 data=0xa4e80+0xa9e40 syms=[0x4+0x6cac0+0x4+0x88e9d] \
FreeBSD 引导加载器会显示：
您可以等待十秒或按 Enter 键。
在大多数机器上， 开机时按住 C 键可以从 CD 启动。
除此之外， 按住
Command+Option+O+F， 在非 Apple® 键盘上是
Windows+Alt+O+F， 然后在出现的提示符 0 > 下输入
boot cd:,\ppc\loader cd:0对于不带键盘的 Xserves 机器，请参考 Apple® 支持网站 以了解如何引导至 Open Firmware。
多数 SPARC64® 系统均设置成了硬盘自启动。 若要安装 FreeBSD， 则应从网络或 CDROM 启动， 这就需要首先进入 PROM（OpenFirmware）。
重启系统后等待引导信息出现， 虽然其具体内容取决于机器型号， 但应该会类似：
Sun Blade 100 (UltraSPARC-IIe), Keyboard Present Copyright 1998-2001 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved. OpenBoot 4.2, 128 MB memory installed, Serial #51090132. Ethernet address 0:3:ba:b:92:d4, Host ID: 830b92d4.
如果此时系统已经开始从硬盘启动， 那么请按下
L1+A
或
Stop+A
或在串口控制台发送 BREAK（在 tip(1) 或 cu(1)
中是 ~#）以进入
PROM 提示符，
它应该如下所示：
ok
ok {0}
| 这是在单 CPU 系统上的提示符。 |
| 这是在 SMP 系统上的提示符， 其中的数字表示可用的 CPU 个数。 |
现在， 放入 CDROM 并在 PROM 提示符后输入
boot cdrom。
为了便于查阅， 屏幕上所显示的最后几百行字符会始终保存在缓冲区里。
若要浏览缓冲区， 可以按下 Scroll Lock 键来开启屏幕的滚动功能； 开启后即可使用方向键、 PageUp 键或 PageDown 键进行翻阅； 再次按下 Scroll Lock 键将关闭滚动功能。
浏览时将看到内核进行了设备探测， 其结果类似 图 3.2 “典型的设备探测结果” 中的文本， 但具体内容会因计算机中所包含的设备而有所不同。

Trying to mount root from cd9660:/dev/iso9660/FREEBSD_INSTALL [ro]...请仔细检查设备探测结果， 以确定 FreeBSD 找到了所有您希望使用的设备。
没有找到的设备并不会在这里列出， 因为默认的
GENERIC 内核中不包含它们； 可以通过
内核模块
对这些设备提供支持。
设备探测完成后， 您将看到 图 3.3 “选择安装介质的使用方式”， 表明安装介质共有三种用途： 安装 FreeBSD 、 作为“Live CD”或引导至 FreeBSD 的命令行界面。 请使用方向键选择一项后按 Enter 键确认。
