Hi, I tried to install FreeBSD 2.1.0 on my Aptiva PC. This is a 1 GB IDE drive. Apparently i was successful with installing it as i am able to set up accounts, log in create files and save them, etc. But during installation i noticed that the disk geometry freebsd is using is different from that of my disk.I would like to know how i can set up freebsd to recognize the same disk geometry as my pc's disk. Also i would like to set up ppp/kermit dialup access. What should i do for this? Is there any doc that tells how to set this up? For kermit i followed the config doc and when i try to dial i get a modem initialization failure. I have problems installating the sources as i get an "unexpected eof " message with whichever part of the sources i try to install. I am sorry if some of these questions have already been answered,. I have already searched the freebsd newsgroup archives before posting my question here. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. -Raj
