LBA is setup in the BIOS... make sure you're AutoDetecting the hard drive in the CMOS and save the settings, but do NOT auto detect on every boot... that's asking for trouble. Also a copy of the exact error message you get plus a decription of where you're having problems might help too. ;) Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
