What I would like to do is be able to attach an extra IDE harddrive so I can have some more storage space in the machine. Right now 8GB (2x 4GB Seagate Baracuda) isnt enough space for what I want to use the machine for, and large scsi disks are out of my price range.

Correct, you cannot boot from IDE on Avanti unless I'm really out in the woods. -- | / o / /_ _ FreeBSD core team secretary |/|/ / / /( (_) Bulte wilko@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
