Hello.

I have a 1.6 gig WD HDD and a GSI EIDE controller.

I installed the drive and the BIOS picked up the 1.6 gig.  The GSI BIOS didn't.  I installed Windows95 on the first 503 meg (It was all dos would see).  And then I installed FreeBSD on the remaining 1+ gig.  I rebooted the computer and it gave me this message:

Boot:
Error: c:1024 > 1023 (BIOS limit)

Any suggestions???

Thanks,
Blair
