I have burned an ISO DVD of FreeBSD. When I try to install it I am asked for my username and password which I did not have. Please help?

Thank you,

gangolfer

If it's an installation ISO, the username is root and no password is needed.

What kind of ISO did you burn, then?

The installer doesn't require a username and password. When exactly are you asked to login?
