Greetings,

Try to install OpenBSD 4.2 i386 on a new HP Compaq dc7700 Small Form Factor,
but when it comes to install the software sets from the CD, the install
fails:

.......
.......
.......
Password for root account? (will not echo)
Password for root account? (again)

Let's install the sets!
Location of sets? (cd disk ftp or `done`) [cd]
Available CD-ROMs are: cd0
Which one contains the install media? (or `done`) [cd0]

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
it stops here, blanks out!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

During boot the cd0 works OK (is seems), and it is recognized as:

cd0 at scsibus0 targ0 lun0: <TSSTcorp, CDW/DWD TS-H493A, CD067 SCSI0 5/cdrom
removable
cd0(pciide0:1:0) using PIO mode 4, Ultra DMA mode 5

CPU: Intel (R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6300 1.86 GHz

Any suggestions?
