I have tried to change the Geometry in the fdisk during installation, but it says that it cannot change to 32 heads in the partition table. My BIOS is set to 32 heads, 63 sectors, 682 cylinders, but the wd0 driver detects 16 heads, 63, sectors, 1365 cylinders. Will I have to change my BIOS settings? I didn't see anything in the FAQ's concerning this, although FAQ.1 does say that EIDE is supported. Tom Weldon Atlanta, GA tweldon@mindspring.com
