Hi, An interesting detail I noticed in the manual for a new Pentium board. The BIOS (Phoenix) has as a CD option (together with types 1-39, user, and auto). It says the CD option is used for bootable IDE CDROM. Selects CD option for booting from bootable ATAPI IDE CDROM. I knew that this was posssible (Our Compaq can boot from SCSI CDROM), but didn't know that this BIOS option was available in general clones. Is there any SCSI controller that has bootable CDROM support? Any plans for bootable FreeBSD CD? Jonas
