Hi, you might want to install the bootloader? Look in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/biosboot; if you type make there you should get two files; boot1 and boot2. Then use disklabel -B -b boot1 -s boot2 to install them. Hope this helps? FrankE To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-fs" in the body of the message
