Hi,
I'm Claudio from Pisa (Italy).

I had a problem with my hard-disk ATA100:it wasn't recognized by =
operating system installation programs,
    for example: Linux and FreeBSD4.4 .

I solved this problem with Linux (not yet with FreeBsd) with these =
steps:
  1. during the first phase of the installation (at the prompt "boot: ") =
I wrote:
     "vmlinuz ide2=3D0x9000,0x8802 ide3=3D0x8400,0x80002"
     So I completed successfully the installation.
  2. After this for accessing to the system I wrote at the prompt "boot: =
" :
     "linux ide2=3D0x9000,0x8802 ide3=3D0x8400,0x8000 "    =20
  3. At the end, for automatizing the boot phase I wrote this line in =
lilo.conf: =20
     "append ide2=3D0x9000,0x8802 ide3=3D0x8400,0x8000"
     and executed : "/sbin/lilo".

Now my system works well.

How can I do some equivalent steps with FreeBSD4.4 ?

I'd like to use this O.S. with my computer.


Thank you

claudio
