 I then attempted to install the FreeBSD on my secondary EIDE harddisk,
 which is only 540M, but when I bootup the boot-disk, the kernel was
 panic, it fail to recongize all the data-storage device and the PC just
 hang-up.

 according to SCO-unix, their OS have the same problem due to the EIDE
 hard-disk size is greater than 2G. please give some advance, such that
 where can I get the new patch to fix this problem, or what else I could
 do with this.

regards
