In the kernel configuration window, I delete all drivers from the block device section keeping only the aha154x driver and the floppy controller driver. However, the kernel does not detect my AHA controller. The controller is configured to the IO port 0x330 and to IRQ 10 and Windows 95 works well with it. I thought I would explicitly configure the IO port and the IRQ for the kernel, but there are no appropriate fields for this driver in the kernel configuration window -- there is only a "Flags" field. (Other drivers do have IO port and IRQ fields.) Does anyone have an idea what to do? Thank you!

My questions are: > 1) What program(s) can do the partitioning of my disk, which > I need to do before installing freeBSD? I have the best luck with Partition Magic from Power Quest. It is about $60 or $70 from most places like Best Buy or Circuit City, etc. It is better at handling NTFS than the freeware stuff I have seen - the freeware stuff basically doesn't handle NTFS. It seems to work best to have the MS stuff first on the disk and the FreeBSD slice[s] after . Note that in FreeBSD land, what Microsloth calls 'partition' is a slice. Partitions are subdivisions of slices. Up to 4, that are numbered 1..4 area allowed. So, you will have an NTFS slice for Winxxx and a FreeBSD slice for FreeBSD. You will further partition the FreeBSD slice to make make units for file systems. The partitions will be named a..h. So, for example, if the disk is SCSI, your root would be addressed as /dev/da0s2a. eg disk '0', slice '2', partition 'a'. You may know this already, but I have spent so much time explaining this so often that I figured I might as well just get it over with. > 2) Is it preferable to install from a CD-ROM, or will it > suffice to download the latest release from the web? If you with to support the project by buying a CD set, then do so. The ISO image you download and burn on to a CD yourself is the same as the CD you would buy - at least the first three are. The CD sets you buy have some more disks with the rest of the port sources and whatever on them. If can burn your own CDs and want to do that, download the mini-ISO of the latest version - 4.9 and burn it on to a CD. Note that the ISO file is already an iso so you don't have to convert it to anything. Just burn it on the CD. There are lots of good instructions on the FreeBSD site and in the handbook. Then, boot the mini-ISO CD, answer all the appropriate quesitons, make up a reasonable division of the FreeBSD site in to partitions which is a=root, b=swap, e=tmp, f-may be /usr, g may be /var, h=home or some filesystem to hold the bulk of everything you are doing. I say may be on /usr and /var, because some people include them in the big bulk file system with softlinks and some include /home in /usr with softlinks, etc. I put it all in /home myself. Select everything you want to load/instrall - do include the ports, it is just the skeleton to run later installs, not the full source - and X and then tell it to load from an ftp site. Pick a good mirror site for where you live - usually the main ftp site is really busy - and let er rip. It will work. Fiddle around getting your Xwindows set up and working for your screen, etc and you have a basic system. Then have fun with sendmail, adding apache server, spam killers, whatever your heart desires. ////jerry > > thanks, > sigve > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-config@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-config > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-config-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > From owner-freebsd-config@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Nov 14 22:33:42 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-config@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9D2D816A4CE for ; Fri, 14 Nov 2003 22:33:42 -0800 (PST) Received: from smtp2.vsnl.net (smtp2.vsnl.net [203.200.235.232]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 521D743FB1 for ; Fri, 14 Nov 2003 22:33:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from torahuls@vsnl.com) Received: from private ([127.0.0.1]) by smtp2.vsnl.net (iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 HotFix 1.16 (built May 14 2003)) with SMTP id <0HOD00MFGRDM0B@smtp2.vsnl.net> for freebsd-config@freebsd.org; Sat, 15 Nov 2003 11:59:49 +0530 (IST) Received: from ([219.65.94.20]) by smtp2.vsnl.net (InterScan E-Mail VirusWall Unix); Sat, 15 Nov 2003 11:59:48 +0530 (IST) Date: Sat, 15 Nov 2003 12:04:51 +0530 From: Rahul Sawarkar To: freebsd-config@freebsd.org Message-id: <001401c3ab43$98340390$145e41db@private> MIME-version: 1.0 X-MIMEOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2800.1106 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1106 Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-priority: Normal References: <20031113200045.52B2016A4E8@hub.freebsd.org> Subject: Re: freebsd-config Digest, Vol 24, Issue 1 X-BeenThere: freebsd-config@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Installation and Configuration List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 15 Nov 2003 06:33:42 -0000 Hello Did the driver you chose say AHA154x? most likely it is for another adapted HBA.

However, I was aware of PartitionMagic before posting my question, my hope was that some users of this phorum were familiar with other partition programs that are free. If such programs do not exist, I guess I have to follow Your advice and get a PartitionMagic copy at some e-commerce site. thanks, sigve On Fri, 14 Nov 2003, Jerry McAllister wrote: > > Hey, > > > > I have a Dell Inspiron Laptop running Windows2000 on an > > NTFS file system.
