I first wanted to try my Thinkpad with a dangerously dedicated ide and the
src and obj nfs mounted from the server (the one that doesn't work). The
Thinkpad works fine.

The server, asus p2l97-ds w/ 1005 bios, does indeed have another partition
before FBSD. 1 is w95, 2 is FBSD boot, and 3 is FBSD. I tried ls'ing every-
thing I could think of and nothing works. I'll include the fdisk and disklabel.

Any suggestion on what to try?
