I can't get the thing to boot a windows boot disk to upgrade the BIOS, the only thing I can get to boot is the FBSD boot disks. It might be something todo with the hardware and not the software knowing that another server I purchased from them is DOA but I emailed them and asked what they thought the drive geometry was, I mean...whats one more install of FreeBSD? Whats that gonna make? 7 or 8 now?
