I have to say the installation went very smooth, I also added an Intel EtherExpress 100B card as second NIC and it was recognized immediately of course. I am actually using a SCSI IBM-DNES disc and a EIDE Western Digital Disk, and both work very well. The IDE disk is also even fast (7MB/sec), the SCSI one faster (18MB/sec) and the CPU speed is really amazing. THanks to all of us who helped me answering my boring questions the previous week about the Miata. I have one more question now: How do I remove hte CPU fan cooler ?? Seems like I have to shift outward the motherboard to being able to remove it. I Wanted to clean it but I am not able to get it out of the box. There is also a small piece of card mounted next to the CPU vertically to the motherboard, what is it ? When the Miata is ON this little card burns like hell, and also the CPU metal dissipator it burns quite a lot, so much that I Am scared of overheating.... any suggestions?? thanks Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
