But I cannot install it. I never get past the F? prombt (I have already installed Win98se). I did go through the FAQ to find a solution. I tried to do as it is described in "Which geometry should I use for a disk drive". Unfortunately I end up with 2549 cylinders for my 20G IDE harddisk. This is the lowest amount of cylinders I can set. And I can still not get past the F? prombt. Can it really be true that I can't run FreeBSD from my 20GB harddisk. If so why doesn't it say so on the "Power Pack" package ? Please respond ASAP. I have already been asking this question several times, without getting an answer.
