Hello to everyone :) In an attempt to install FreeBSD 5.4-RC2, I encountered (except for many other things :p) the following problem: There is a disagreement as fas as the cylinder geometry of my hard disk is concercned, beetwen BIOS and FreeBSD. Sysinstall asks me to adjust it appropriately, but when I do so, the installation process terminates with an error: "Unable to find device node for /dev/X in /dev". I flashed my BIOS with the latest update but it didn't seem to help. In the same disk I have Linux and Windows XP installed. Thank you a lot, Stathis K. P.S. In case it's a trivial matter, forgive my ignorance.
