Naturally I desided to install Freebsd 4.0 on it along with preinstalled WindowsME. So I used Partition Magic to cut the 40 gig windows partition and add a partition for freebsd (about 5 gigs allocated). The installation ran pretty smoothly, it probed my hardware fine and everything seemed to be working ok. During the installation process freebsd prompted me to choose a boot loader, I choose the freebsd boot manager (booteasy). When I rebooted my machine The boot easy prompt came on F1 for windows and F2 for freebsd, I hit F2 because I wanted freebsd to load. When I hit "F2" all I heard was my internal speaker beep - one of those annoying "warning beeps" and nothing attempted to load. when I hit F1 windows loaded fine. I began thinking it was some sort of BIOS configuration problem so I went in bios and no luck there eather.. I have heard about some system BIOS having an issue with exceeding 1024 cylinders or whatnot, but this is for OLD machines not new 1.5 ghz machine.. If anyone has information on my problem or can offer suggestions please email me... I will take you out for a cup of coffee or lunch if you help me get freebsd running (joking) anyways have a great summer bsd cadets and stay away from the heat..

Your information is false. You must have your FreeBSD boot partition inside that 1024 cylinder limit. ME probably takes less than 500M, so parttioning wouldn't be difficult. I run an 8G drive with 3 partitions -1.5G windos 1.5G windos and 5G FreeBSD - and this works just fine. I started with the 5G as Free Space using Partition Magic, FreeBSD identified this and installed easily. You might need to experiment to see just how large you might be able to make those first two partitions, as you have a 20G drive. Problem is that if you try windos-windos-freeBSD - windos the first two windos partitions will not be able to 'see' that third windos past the intervening FreeBSD partition, so you WILL need to make those first two as large as you can, while still keeping the FreeBSD boot partition happy. Personally, I would have avoided many problems by having two drives each of 10G rather than one of 20G. Oh well ... too late now. BTW, your question should have been placed in FreeBSD-questions. -- Regards, Brian ******************************************************** Dr Brian Astill Visiting Research Fellow Flinders University Institute of International Education Bus 8201 3480 FAX 8449 9199 bastill@sa.apana.org.au ******************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Wed Jul 4 1: 8: 8 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from mail.elbayu.com (mail.elbayu.com [12.16.41.112]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6A9E237B40B for ; Wed, 4 Jul 2001 01:08:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from eleanor_19@hotmail.com) Received: from oemcomputer [12.21.14.148] by mail.elbayu.com (SMTPD32-6.06) id AFCB12330136; Wed, 04 Jul 2001 04:03:39 -0300 Message-Id: Date: Wed, 4 Jul 2001 03:10:18 -0300 X-Priority: 3 From: "Eleanor Davis" Reply-To: eleanor_19@hotmail.com X-Mailer: Email Collector & Sender by SBZ systems To: A-L.Heim@t-online.de MIME-Version: 1.0 Subject: my pic that i told you =) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8Bit Sender: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org the finest girls and models over the net http://www.erawtic.org/ FOR FREE!!! give them a look.. what can lose? i dont have much to say.. its not needed.. you will like them, beliveme att.

I've tried with other ports and there is the same problem : compilation fails, but the reasons are always different. For instance, Lynx does not compile because it cannot find 3 headers. The headers are at the right place, but there is no -I/path/to/headers in the compilation command line. For Bash2, installation fails, because wrong options are passed to "mkversion.sh", a script from the bash source tree. The reason is that some variables are not initialized. I use gcc 2.95.3, default installed make tool, and csh. I'm running FreeBSD 4.3. If you have an idea...

What is the last release kernel version of FreeBSD? Is possible to compile it? Is the source code available? How about hardware support? Are there drivers for PCMCIA cards and winmodems?

The whole OS from kernel to userland is integrated into a single source tree, and all of it is now at release 4.3 And the full source for everything is available and a license so free it makes the Linux look miserly. FreeBSD comes with very good documentation. The FreeBSD handbook, which is also online, has a chapter on rebuilding the kernel and another on rebuilding everything else. > How about hardware support? Are there drivers for PCMCIA cards and > winmodems? > I'm interested in install it on a notebook. Like Linux, there won't be any winmodem support. Fire off a nasty letter to your winmodem manufacturer, and go grab a real modem (you know, one that actually meets the dictionary definition). PCMCIA works fine. But like Linux, laptops can be tricky beasts. You might have to do a bit of searching to get some of the more esoteric part-of-the-day components to work. In my experience, FreeBSD has better support for network related hardware, but not as much for soundcards. There is a site for FreeBSD laptops. I don't know where it is though.

Check out "linmodem" on Linux. There is also currently a project under way to support Winmodems under FreeBSD. :) The source has been commited to -current as of last week.

It is also available at http://www.welearn.com.au/freebsd/newbies/) FreeBSD-Questions@FreeBSD.ORG is the place to send all questions about installing, configuring, running and using FreeBSD. All help requests are handled by FreeBSD-Questions, including newbies questions. FreeBSD-Newbies is different. We don't ask for help or answer how-to questions. It is a discussion forum for newbies. FreeBSD-Newbies provides a place for new FreeBSD users to meet and covers any of the activities of newbies that are not already dealt with elsewhere. Examples include helping each other to learn more on our own, finding and using resources, problem solving techniques, how to seek help elsewhere, how to use mailing lists and which lists to use, general chat, making mistakes, boasting, sharing ideas, stories, moral (but not technical) support, and taking an active part in the FreeBSD community. We take our problems and support questions to freebsd-questions, and use freebsd-newbies to meet others who are doing the same things that we do as newbies. One of the things we do together is learn more effective ways to find help when we need it. Here are some suggestions: When something doesn't work the way you expect 1. First look at the errata for your release of FreeBSD at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/releases/ for the latest information and security advisories. 2. Search the Handbook, FAQ, and mail archives at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/search.html 3. If you still have a question or problem, collect the output of `uname -a' and of any relevant program(s) and email your question to FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. Mailing lists When you have a problem that you can't solve by yourself, there's only one support mailing list and that's FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. FreeBSD-questions helps with installation and basic setup as well as more general and advanced questions. You don't have to actually join freebsd-questions before asking a question there. Replies to your question will normally be sent to you personally as well as to the list. Just make sure you have read and followed the guidelines for posting, because you might find them different to what you're used to. If you do subscribe to freebsd-questions you'll have the advantage of seeing all of the recent questions and their answers. Before you post to FreeBSD-questions, please read the guidelines at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html Many of the people who answer FreeBSD-questions are very knowledgeable, but they get frustrated when they get questions which are difficult to understand. http://www.lemis.com/email.html is worth reading too. If you're not sure that you can follow these guidelines, come back and ask the other newbies for help on how to post an effective question to the support mailing list. Maybe your question has been asked before. If you search the mailing list archives at http://www.freebsd.org/search.html first you might get the answer right away. It's always worth trying. Other mailing lists (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/eresources.html#ERESOURCES-CHARTERS) cover specialised areas and many are more developer-oriented. You'll need to read their charters carefully before participating, but it's probably a good idea to ask on either -newbies or -questions for advice about where to post a more specialised question. FreeBSD-announce is a very low volume read-only list for occasional announcements, such as notice of new releases, and the Really Quick Newsletter. It's worth subscribing to FreeBSD-announce too. Manuals You'll always be expected to show that you have made some effort to use the available documentation before asking for help. That's not always as easy as it sounds! If you know what documentation you need but can't locate it, send a brief query to FreeBSD-questions. If you don't know what you need, always have trouble finding it, or can't make any sense of it when you do, ask some patient newbies to steer you in the right direction. Anyone interested in writing or reviewing documentation for FreeBSD is encouraged to join the FreeBSD Documentation Project. Details are at http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/docproj.html Other resources A resource list is available at http://www.freebsd.org/projects/newbies.html to help new and inexperienced FreeBSD users to find relevant information quickly. It includes books, on line documents and tutorials, and links to web pages that other newbies have found useful for learning. If you have a suggestion for good material to be included, please write to freebsd-newbies and tell us about it. But I have seen people asking questions here! It is quite common for people to send the wrong kind of post to a mailing list. Because we're newbies it'll certainly happen here from time to time. The best thing to do if you see a message that doesn't belong on a list is to ignore it. There's always someone around whose job it is to sort these problems out privately. The posts to the lists go straight through, whatever their content. It is going to be confusing for a little while because we're all newbies so we all make mistakes. That's OK. One thing we're going to see a fair bit is people posting questions, believing they're doing the right thing by posting here as newbies, not realising how it works. If someone answers those questions the situation will snowball. There's nothing wrong with helping someone to redirect their question to freebsd-questions, but please do so gently. There's nothing wrong with the occasional mistake either. So all questions, requests for help, etc still go to freebsd-questions as usual. Ours is more of a discussion group, a place where newbies can relax with other newbies and focus more on our successes than on our temporary imperfection. We can talk about things here that are not allowed on freebsd-questions. We're also a bit freer to make the mistakes that we need to make in order to learn. _________________________________________________________________ To Subscribe to FreeBSD-Newbies: Send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "subscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message.
