I have 128 mb Ram, and a Maxtor 17gb ultra IDE drive, and a Promise Ultra 66, ATA/66 PCI controller. I have Windoze 98 as the primary OS, and wish to install FreeBSD as my sec. OS. I partitioned my HD into two partitions: 8gb for Win and the remaining for Unix. When I boot the Kernel, and it probes for my devices. It does not find WD0 - my Hard Drive. At the end of the probe, is lists the error something like this "isa_probe_'something'" and does not allow me to proceed through the installation any furthere. It says that it could not locate my Hard Drive. I think it has to be some sort of conflict. I also have a DVD-ROM drive and a CD-RW drive. I hope this is enough detail for you. Let me know if you can think of anything. Devon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
