Hello, Being the pack rat that I am, I couldnt bring myself to throw out an HP NetServer that we were replacing at work, so I am trying to install FreeBSD on it at home. Here is my problem, I found the posting for getting the harddrive recognized, however, the cd-rom is not getting recognized during bootup. I found the document on increasing the probing time, however, being new to your product (and very limited in my Unix-ese) I have no idea on how to increase this time. Also if this sounds like I am chasing the wrong fix can you please make a recommendation. Here are the servers specs: 100MHz, 133MHz and 166MHz Pentium processors Cache 256KB external write-back cache (standard) Memory Up to 192MB Expansion Slots Six I/O expansion slots; One PCI, Four EISA bus master slots, One shared PCI/EISA SCSI Integrated dual-channel EISA Fast SCSI-2 controller Mass Storage Subsystem Three front-accessible shelves One quad-speed SCSI CD-ROM (standard) One 3.5-inch, 1.44MB flexible disk drive (standard) the CD-ROM is a Toshiba xm540ta thanks for your time Joe __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
