Greetings, I have a modern system with both IDE drives mapped using LBA, so the BIOS has no problem short of about 120GB. I will be using either GRUB or V-Communications' "System Commander" as a Boot loader. Does the < Cylinder 1024 Boot Partition limitation apply? Since the second drive is used now for expansion space & swap partitions, I can, if necessary rearrange things there and install FreeBSD in the first partition there. I'd prefer to install FreeBSD above 12GB on the first drive. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
