Hi, At present I have a Hard disk with FreeBSD on a 486/DX266. I want to configure it in a machine 386/33, but when I reboot the system report me incompatibility (and show me some option but never can use those)and reboot each 10 seconds. Can I use the disk on the 386/33 machine? Rgds, Mauricio Calderon At 07:02 AM 10/14/96 -0400, Matthew A.
