Set the disk type in the BIOS to be NORMAL. 2. Install FreeBSD 'dangerously dedicated'. 3. If it hangs at boot time, don't reinstall, simply go into the BIOS and change the disk type to be LBA. Reboot. Only if the above fails should you fall back to reinstalling with a partition table. -- (Rahul Dhesi) a2i network support account <support@rahul.net> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
