Hello,

I'm a very confused MSDos/Windows user looking for an education in Unix
for business and personal reasons.  On the recommendation of a co-worker
I selected FreeBSD as an educational platform, picked up a set of CD's
(Ver 2.15) and tried to Install to a slaved (D) 824 meg Western Digital
EIDE drive on my home computer.

The problem is I can't get the install program to recognize the slave
drive.

Would you give this knuckle dragging neophyte some advice on how to
proceed?  I've mailed the main FreeBSD organization but no response so
far.

I hope to hear from you.

John Purser
