Hi,
I'm Claudio from Pisa (Italy).
I had a problem with my hard-disk ATA100:it wasn't recognized by operating system installation programs,
for example: Linux and FreeBSD4.4 .
I solved this problem with Linux (not yet with FreeBsd) with these steps:
1. during the first phase of the installation (at the prompt "boot: ") I wrote:
"vmlinuz ide2=0x9000,0x8802 ide3=0x8400,0x80002"
So I completed successfully the installation.
2. After this for accessing to the system I wrote at the prompt "boot: " :
"linux ide2=0x9000,0x8802 ide3=0x8400,0x8000 "
3. At the end, for automatizing the boot phase I wrote this line in lilo.conf:
"append ide2=0x9000,0x8802 ide3=0x8400,0x8000"
and executed : "/sbin/lilo".
Now my system works well.
How can I do some equivalent steps with FreeBSD4.4 ?
I'd like to use this O.S. with my computer.
Thank you
claudio
