Seidl" To: "'questions@ FreeBSD.org'" Subject: Installation FreeBSD 2.1 Date: Wed, 10 Jul 1996 16:47:58 +-200 Encoding: 25 TEXT Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I'm trying to install FreeBSD 2.1 on my computer for the first time. My configuration looks like this: Pentium 100 PCI already running MS Windows 95. 2 IDE Disks for Windows 95 2 SCSI Disks reserved for FreeBSD SCSI Controller Adaptec AHA-2920 SCSI DAT drive Sony CDROM drive CDU55e I have some questions concerning this installation: 1. Is the SCSI Controller AHA-2920 (compatible to Future Domain TMS 39xx) already supported by FreeBSD 2.1 ? 2. Is it possible to install FreeBSD with destroying the Windows 95 installation ? 3. Is it possible to install the FreeBSD boot manager, to decide at boot time which system to use. 4. How do I configure the boot manager to boot from the first SCSI disk ? Many thanks for your endeavours. Wolfgang Seidl (Germany, ws@dps.de)
