The BIOS in it doesn't support large harddrives and i have a 4.3 gig IDE in it. after rebooting after the install (i didn't do the untar yet of the backup) the machine will not boot. is there anyway to save the installation i did? sorry for flooding with dumb questions but the install procedure especially switching disks with FreeBSD has always been difficult for me. Thanks again, Alfred
