Hello list, Thank you for your help, though freebsd still hangs at the boot prompt. However I noted some warrnings it issues during the instalation. If anyone can tell me what they mean I will be very gratefull: DEBUG: Scanning disk wd0 for swap partition Warrning: calculated sectors per cylinder (4096) disagree with disk label (840) /dev/rwd0a: 65536 sec in 16 cyl of 1 track, 4096 sec 32.0Mb in 1 cyl groups (16c/g, 32Mb/g, 3840 i/g) Superblock backups (...) at 32 ... ... /mnt/dev/rwd0s2f: 581936 sec in 148 cyl of 1, 3932 ... /mnt/dev/rwd0s2e ... Is that related to disk geometry? I use the autodetect hard drive from BIOS. I have also never seen the dos partition properly alligned (no '=' sign)... What is the other way to get right disk geometry? I noted also that is CMOS the size of the disk is 405Mb as chkdsk report 424Mb? Yegor Sinelnikov
