I'm fairly new to FreeBSD, so I'm kind of lost at the moment. I just bought a used Compaq ProLiant Server, dual Pentium Pro 200MHz 256k, two ~4GB SCSI HDDs. The first thing I did was making the two standard boot-floppies. The installation then was pretty much like the one I remember from installing FreeBSD on an IBM. Post install configuration also appeared to work properly. After rebooting the following happened: 1st try: with standard BootManager: I couldn't select FreeBSD or hit enter, the puter just beeped 2nd try: without extra bootmanager: I got the one-liner that no operating system is installed Anybody any idea what happened? Any tips how to get it working? The second problem: I would like to use the two disks in a Level 0 Software-RAID. Is it possible to configure Vinum during System installation? Thanks for your help!
