I have the hdd hooked up as a primary master, the cdrom as secondary master. The cdrom is the 1st boot device & the hdd the second. When I put in the fBSD firstdisk.iso into the CD, it finds the hdd...installs the boot manager, partitions it & installs to the point where it says "Congratulations". It asks me to enter some config info. Everything looks good so far. When I remove the cdrom and boot from the hdd i get " system disk boot failure. Insert system drive" thoughts?
