Description Frank Thieme 2009-11-25 19:20:01 UTC 
I try to boot the amd64 CD 1 or livecd and last think I see is:

"Probing devices, please wait" and fails with 
/: write failed, file system is full
panic: going nowhere without my init!

After that the machine is frozen and I just can switch off.

How-To-Repeat: insert CD, start system and just wait

Could you please test to see if you can boot successfully from 
a 7.2 CD?

Unfortunately this PR was never addressed before these versions of FreeBSD went out of support.  Sorry.

If this is still a problem, please open a new PR.  Thanks.
