--=====================_916149031==_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" How do I uninstall FreeBSD? I have attached lists of my drives, 0 being the first drive and 1 being the second. I have tried to install FreeBSD on my second drive, above 1024 cylinders, booting from the first. If this is not possible, I would like to remove the boot manager. How do I remove the boot manager? If there is a way to make this work, I would appreciate the help. I tried calling your voice number, but it seemed busy. I've also seen this message when I tried to boot FreeBSD from the Boot Floppy : Error: C: 4159 > 1023 (BIOS Limit) I used PFDISK to get the hard disk geometry's, and after I re-installed I still received the same message when trying to boot using the Boot Floppy. I had a different problem when I tried to boot the OS from the Boot Manager, which said that there was : Error reading the OS or something to that effect. I'm lucky I'm able to write you now.
