I have Red Hat Linux 9 running on my server with HDD Western Digital WD2500JB (250 GB IDE). I'd like to move to FreeBSD 6.1. During install from CD setup doesn't recognize geometry of my HDD (it says 484521/16/63 is wrong geometry and switches it to 30401/255/63, but after that still can't write anything). Red Hat works with geometry 30401/255/63. Also I've tried to enter data from BIOS - it doesn't help too. On HDD's manufacturer site I've read, that recommended geometry is cyls 16383, secs 63; total sector count - 488 397 168. Can someone help me to solve this problem? Thank you. Dmitriy. ______________________________ Отправлено http://webmail.meta.ua/
