Reply-to: ian@gamespot.com Priority: normal X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Windows (v2.23) Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I'm told that there is a bug in the sysinstall in 2.1.0 that has similarly thwarted my efforts to add a 2nd scsi drive. Once I figure out the best way to migrate to 2.1.5 (all the problems I see reported on this list I find vey unsettling) -- I'm told this problem would be fixed in the 2.1.5 release -- I plan on getting that other disk on-line once I've navigated that plunge (this is my first fbsd installation ya see). > Date: Thu, 18 Jul 1996 05:29:12 -0600 (MDT) > From: Blair Schmittel > To: questions@freebsd.org > Subject: Second HDD problems. > > Hello; > > I am trying to install a second SCSI HDD on one of my servers.
