I seem to understand that yours is a **hardware** issue.=20 Incidentally, a limited number of disk & chipset combinations (AFAIR,=20 **some** VIA chipsets) do not work in UDMA with the new ata driver. You should provide as many details (your hardware; error messages) as=20 you can. Someone more knowledgeable may spot your problem -- provided=20 he or she is online. <aside> However, I am not quite sure that you can fit "All" distributions into=20 a 402MB disk, ie into a ~ 310MB /usr. **If** I remember rightly (I=20 installed all the stuff, including X), it took about ~ 500 MB. =20 </aside> Best regards, Salvo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
