With a ThinkPad 750C, when installing FreeBSD 2.1.5, the boot
disk hangs.  I believe Linux installations have the same problm
but they have some fixes.
The following prints after a screen of probing, using -v :

BIOS Geometries:
 0:03910e31  0..913=914 cylinders,  0..14=15 heads,   1..49=49 sectors
 0 accounted for

...then hangs !

Is there any documentation on this ?  If not, could this problem
be researched.  Thanks.
