hi!
i installed FreeBSD 2.2.7, no problems @ all, from a CD i made from the
FTP (almost everything). when i want to boot from the HD, it reads the HD
for less than a sec, and it gives me "Read Error" and dies there.
everything goes ok if i boot from floppy, using 0:wd(0,a)kernel (being
kernel either the original one or my new recompiled one)...
what could be the problem?
i've changed the HD geom. from CHS to LBA to Large (not from the bios, but
from fdisk), exactly the same result...
TIA!!!
