Ryan From: bschilling To: Sent: Monday, February 12, 2001 11:36 AM Subject: wd0 and ad0 I installed freebsd 4.2 on my old pentium 166 PC. When I go into sysinstall (after installing) and go to disk label it asks which drives I want to label. It gives me the choice of wd0 and ad0 even though I only have one hard drive in the computer. Is this correct? If this is correct could someone point me to a place where I can read more about it? thanks.
