I was given an old file server and I cannibalized it's 630m SCSI hard drive and Adaptec AHA-1542B host adapter. This is the first SCSI stuff that I have ever installed on a system. The system that I put it into has a 1.6g IDE drive (primary master) with Win95. The install went well and I used Win95 to format and check out the SCSI drive. The install of FreeBSD `dangerously dedicated' to the SCSI drive seemed to go well. But, after boot initializes everything I keep getting this error message on the console; panic! Cannot mount root! Can anybody help? Until I can resolve this issue, I have dedicated my 1.6g IDE for FreeBSD but I really need to have a dedicated Win95 disk available on this system.
