Have you messed with the :boot IDE or SCSI first setting in the bios? Also, I think that board has one :of those annoying bioses which you have to scroll down to see all the :settings. Try looking again for a floppy disable setting, I've never used an :LS120 but disabling the floppy seems sensible. I'm assuming that you've got :an IDE CDROM.....if not you'll need to take a real good look at your SCSI :controller's bios and the MB boot order. Let me state, once again, since people seem to have missed it: This machine is already successfully running Windows98 and Windows NT. NT's boot cd worked. Win98's boot cd failed in the exact same manner FreeBSD's does, so I used a Win98 install floppy. Niether the FreeBSD 4.1.1-R cdrom, nor a boot floppy from that release will boot. Yes, I tested them on another machine to make sure they work. As I stated in my initial post, all drives except the LS-120 are SCSI. No, the motherboard does not have an option to turn the floppy controller off. It does allow me to tell it there are no floppy drives, which I of course have done. I am using a single 256M 3.3v unbufferred PC-133 DIMM in DIMM slot 1.
