I tryed a ftp install of 2.2.1-R this weekend, but could not get it to bood. It seems to boot all the way through with no horrible problems, but then fails to mount root. I think it may be a harddisk detection/geometry problem. The motherboard is a triton3 with 2 built in IDE controllers, The harddisks are 2 425.3 MB Western Digital caviars. (model wdac2420-00F) I have Win95 on the first disk and am booting FreeBSD off the second using osbs. Some of the disk related boot messages I get are:- wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 IRQ 14 on ISA wdc0 unit 0 (wd0): <wdc ac2420f> wd0 405 MB (830760 sectors), 989 clys, 15 heads, 56 st, 512 b/s wd1 size unknown unsing fake values wd1 0MB (17 secors), 1 cyls, 1 heads, 17 st, 512 b/s . . . wd1c hard error reading fsbn 829810 . . . wd1 cannot find bad sector table (bad sector table i/o error) wd1s1 cannot find bad sector table (bad sector table i/o error) panic cannot mount root Please help - I need my UNIX box back ! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Anthony Hill www.connect.com.au Network Engineer ahill@connect.com.au connect.com.au ph +61 3 9251 3678 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
