X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi, I'm trying to install FreeBSD 2.1.5 on a system with a Buslogic BT-958 UW-SCSI adapter. As this is a wide adapater it supports SCSI id's from 0 to 15. This is a list with the SCSI id's in use: 2: Pioneer DR-U10X SCSI-2 CDROM drive 7: BT-958 15: Fast-Wide SCSI-2 2,1 GB Fujitsu M2952QUA harddrive When I try to boot, it recognizes the adapter as a BT-946 adapter. The CDROM (id 2) is recognized but by harddrive (id 15) isn't. Nevertheless the menu appears and I select Novice installation. A message appears telling me a fdisk like program will be used to select a slice/partition. I press continue upon which I get a message saying no disks were found! Is it because my adapter is recognized as a BT-946, which isn't a wide adapter and as a result doesn't support SCSI id's higher the 7, that my harddrive isn't recognized. Or is it something else. There's always the possibilities of assigning the harddrive a different SCSI id, but I prefer a software solution. Can anybody help? Thanks, Guido Kollerie.
