Hello ~~~ I'm doing an installation for FreeBSD v4.8 i386 platform on the newly purchased PowerEdge SC1420. When I try to boot from CD-ROM to install my FreeBSD 4.8 i386 my computer stops to work. I do: 1) Booting from CD-ROM 2) Skip kernel configuration. 3) Then I see the kernel as following: [...something before...] ppc0: FIFO with 16/16/8 bytes threshold ppbus0: <Parallel port bus> on ppc0 plip0:<PLIP network interface> on ppbus0 [That is all. Now he stops.] I suspect he can't detect my SATA HDD. I wish to change the HDD to run as IDE on my BIOS but my BIOS can't do this. Any driver I can install to support my SATA HDD? BTW, I can't upgrade on my FreeBSD and I need to run on v4.8. My H/W spec: BIOS system: Dell System PowerEdge SC1420 BIOS Version: A01 Ultra ATA Storange Controller Intel Pro1000MT Gigabit Ethernet Adapter Cheers, Ann
