The C: disk contains DOS stuff, the D: disk is newly formatted but contains no files. I'd like to put all FreeBSD stuff on the D: disk. When I try to use the FreeBSD boot disk I get: [...] wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): wd0: 234 MB (479349 total sec), 723 cyl, 13 head, 51 sec, bytes/sec 512 wdc0: unit 1 (wd1), wd1: 516MB (1057392 total sec), 1049 cyl, 16 head, 63 sec, bytes/sec 512 wdc1 not found at 0x170 I've RTFM but haven't totally UTFM [understood ...]. I'm not sure if there is something that I need to reset in the DOS system setup program or something special I need to do since the D: disk has over 1024 cylinders. Clues suitable for boneheads would be appreciated...feeling pretty frustrated and intimidated about all this. Thanks for any help, Mark
