I have installed FreeBSD on a 500meg IDE disk that my bios doesn't
recognise. Therefore I can't boot from it, and I need to be able to boot
from a floppy and transfer control to the HD afterwards. FreeBSD does
recognise the disk, but the BIOS is very old and non-upgradeable so I can't
boot from this disk, unfortunately.
