>Description:
I installed FreeBSD in a 4.1 gig partition of a dual pentium III.
This partition is the 4th. of a 15gig IDE HD.
Booting from floppy and installing presented no problem. The machine is running BeOS 4.5.1 on the frist partition, with a multiple system booter called bootman provided by Be. I can see the FreeBSD partition, I can select it, but the message:
"read error" appears.
I've installed FreeBSD 3 times, last changing the MBR to standard instead of none
>How-To-Repeat:
just under same conditions
