Cheng Sent: Monday, May 23, 2005 4:35 PM To: FreeBSD Subject: a question or 2 Hi, have a few questions to ask. First: install 5.4 release from floppy can't seem to locate hard drive. I have a ~2GB HD that I was trying to use, 5.4 booting can't locate my HD when partitioning, but 5.3 floppy okay. 2nd: How big a HD should I use? I can't install system+X in that 2GB I just mentioned, by the time it came to X, it just told me that inode is not enough. thanks Best Regards, Tsu-Fan Cheng _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? 登記免費的 @yahoo.com 中文電子郵件 @ http://chinese.mail.yahoo.com Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://chinese.mail.yahoo.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
