x86 P3 whitebox Hard disk: Seagate IDE Model Number:ST380011A Capacity:80 GB Speed:7200 rpm Interface:Ultra ATA/100 The FreeBSD 5.1 BETA 2 installer ( custom "partition" ) has trouble determining my hard disk geometry. The installer reads the disk as 155061/16/63 then reports this as unlikely and guesses 9729/255/63 but the BIOS states that the geometry is 1024/255/63 once the geometry is set correctly, the install works ( with the often mentioned krb5 problem ). _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web!
