I am running a Pentium II 266, with a Promise ATA 6.4 gig hard
drive. I have tried to install Linux, but Linux does not recognize my
hard drive. Will I have the same problem with freeBSD?
Also, freeBSD is supposed to be free, but most references are made
to installing from CD-ROM which happens to cost money. What's the deal
with that?
The instructions to install freeBSD has got to be one of the most
confusing lump of text I have ever run into, can you please tell me, in
simple terms, how I should go about installing freeBSD. I am running
Windows 95 OS.
I am a programmer, who is still foreign to networking terminology,
or file structure on a UNIX machine, which is why I would like to work
with freeBSD.
I greatly appreciate any assistance, and look forward to some help.
Thank you.
