I put in the FreeBSD 5.2.1 CD and says CD loader 1.01
Bulding boot loader, 
boot loader found
..
FreeBSD bootstrap loader version 1.1

Booting Kernel in 9 sec...
Text= Data= Symbols=  \

Then it freezes and reboots again.  Takes about 20 minutes to go through this cycle.

How-To-Repeat: Put in the CD.

Close the PR since much additional information is needed and the 
submitter email address is bogus. 

If the submitter somehow reads this, please do a followup to the PR 
with a real email address, and additional information about system 
configuration (motherboard type/CDROM drive type e.g.), if you have 
tried another CD to make sure it's not a bad media, and have you tried 
FreeBSD 4.10?
