I have tried to install FreeBSD 2.2.6 on a Dell XPSR400. I have some problems with this. First the hardware: 400MHz Pentium II 128MB RAM 1 IBM-DTTA-3711440 14.4 Gb Ultra-ATA IDE hard disk (Master on primary IDE) (yep 14 Gb in one hd) Hitachi GD-2000 DVD-ROM (Master on secondary IDE) Atapi ZIP drive (Slave on secondary IDE) STB Velocity video w/ 4MB Montego Turtle Beach audio 3Com 509b ethernetcard Logitech Mouse (PS/2 interface) The problems starts to occure when I try to boot the computer with the boot floppy. It says that the hardisk only is 8 Gb in size. Well the boot continues and I start the full screen setup and remove all unnecessary devices and save and exit. After this the computer hangs showing the text : "Probing devices, please wait..." Any ideas?
