How (if it's possible at all) should I install a 20GB HDD to be used
with FBSD?  In order for the BIOS to recognize the HDD, I have to use a
small program that came with the hard drive.  I assume it "fakes-out"
the BIOS in order to recognize the entire HDD.  Without it, the BIOS and
Win 98 only sees an 8GB drive.

I want to install FBSD and eventually do away with Windoze.  I've also
checked for a BIOS update for my system, but none exist;  I have the
most current one available.

Mark
