Hello, =20 Can someone provide some input on such phenomena. =20 I tried to install FreeBSD 6.0 on the same computer that is currently running FreeBSD 4.10, but when I try to wipe existing harddrive clean it says no HDDs found, also, advising me to check if my HDD controller is supported or something in that spirit. =20 This is from dmesg on that PC: atapci0: <VIA 8235 ATA133 controller> port 0xfc00-0xfc0f at device 17.1 on pci0 ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0 ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 =20 I checked FreeBSD hardware notes for 6.0 and didn't see any references for this controller. Does it mean I must change my motherboard to install 6.0 or/and up? =20 Thanks much for your input
