Penman, Jr." Subject: booting w/o using hd(1,a) Sender: owner-questions@freeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I'm new to unix and freeBSD, I have gotten as far as installing and making a custom kernel. I'm using an IDE drive and 2 scsi drives. I have booteasy installed on the ide and would like to use the scsi's for freebsd. when i boot freebsd i have to enter (hd(1,a)/kernel. Is there a way to not have to use this command line entry? my concern is that if the machine reboots a human has to be present for the command line. I would like the machine to boot directly into freebsd. thank you **************************************************** Phone: (518) 868-4541 Email: buffalo@albany.net Home Page: http://www.albany.net/~buffalo/index.htm
