Hello, I bought the FreeBSD 2.0 CDROM form Walnut Creek and attempted to install it last night. The problem I ran into was that the fdisk program accessible through the installation program would not recognize my hard drive. I deleted all partitions in the drive and created a 650 MB DOS partition and left the remaining 350 MB for FreeBSD. I low level formated the drive.I stopped the installation procedure to change some of the parameters for installation with "/kernel -c" at the boot prompt, but all to no avail. Following is a list of the hardware I have installed in my machine. SCSI controller: Adaptek 1542CS, I/O port: 130, Int: 11, Bios Address: DC000 Hard Drive: Seagate 11200N, 1 GB, SCSI ID 0 CDROM: Matshita CDROM CR-8004, SCSI ID 4 Any assistance you can give me in installing this OS would be appreciated. Thanks, David Norinsky
