Dear FreeBSD techs,
I have a problem installing the FreeBSD 2.1 release on my computer.
I purchased the 2.1 release for the reason that it supports IDE/ATAPI
CD-ROM's...or so it says.
I try booting directely from the CD..and yes I did do a minimal DOS
boot w/o EMM386(friend metioned that to me) and it reboots half-way through
the procedure. I then tried making a ATAPI/IDE boot floppy...yet it still
doesn't even recognize my drive.
Included are copies of my Config.sys and Autoexec.bat files that I
booted under.
Here are my system specs:
IO card: QD6580W/757 VL Bus IDE card.
supports 4 HDD's or IDE CD-ROM's
CD-ROM Drive: Lxycon CDM-100S Double speed CD-ROM
(CD connected to me IO card)16-bit data transfer & IDE bus interface
128KB buffer
Supports: CD-DA, CD-ROM mode 1 & 2, CD-ROM XA and
Multi-session Photo-CD and CD-I
Tech specs:
Type =3D Semiconductor laser GAAIAS
Wave Length =3D 780 nm
LifeSpan =3D 5000hours
MTBF =3D 30000H 25%
Computer:
Vesa 486 Deep-Greem PC
AMD 486DX2-66Mhz Processor
512K Cache, VLB Bus, 8MB 2x32 72-pin RAM
HDD: Main =3D Seagate ST3660A 545MB IDE
Slave =3D Seagate ST31220A 1.2Gig IDE
(partion for BSD created on Slave[500MB])
VLB SVGA 1MB Cirrus video card.
Sound Card: Lxycon Sound Booster 100% Sound Blaster compat.
Supports Sony, Mitsumi, panasonic, IDE.=20
model LSO-320
If you need more info...contact me at dchubb@vt.edu or call=20
(540) 232-3037.
I am a freshman CS major at Virginie Tech...and even my professors
can't figure out this one....and I figured that the people who created the
product would be able to help. And, I need to get this installed for
class...and soon.
Sincerely,
David P. Chubb
