The installation went fine; however, when I try to boot FreeBSD using the menu I get the message "Read Error". It seems like the system searches the a: for a while and then gave up. I installed using a CD but can't find the file atapi.flp so I used boot.flp. I have tried almost everything (install straight from the CD; write to the MBR; uninstall System Commander ...). I am trying to boot it off the second EIDE drive. The first EIDE is win NT. Please help me if you have any clue as I am really under the gun to do this. Thanks a bunch!
