Hi,
I'm Claudio from Pisa = (Italy).

I had a problem with my hard-disk = ATA100:it wasn't=20 recognized by operating system installation programs,

for example: Linux = and=20 FreeBSD4.4 .

I solved this problem with Linux (not = yet with=20 FreeBsd) with these steps:
1. during the first phase of the=20 installation (at the prompt "boot: ") I = wrote:
    =20 "vmlinuz ide2=3D0x9000,0x8802 = ide3=3D0x8400,0x80002"
     So=20 I completed successfully the installation.
2. After this for = accessing=20 to the system I wrote at the prompt "boot: " = :
    =20 "linux ide2=3D0x9000,0x8802 ide3=3D0x8400,0x8000 = "    =20
3. At the end, for automatizing the boot phase I wrote this = line in=20 lilo.conf:
     "append = ide2=3D0x9000,0x8802=20 ide3=3D0x8400,0x8000"
     and executed :=20 "/sbin/lilo".

Now my system works well.

How can I do some equivalent steps with = FreeBSD4.4=20 ?

I'd like to use this O.S. with my=20 computer.

Thank you

claudio
