I have gone through many iterations of configuring the card and changing scsii numbers on the drives. still when i get to the novice menus it says i have no disks and tells me the controller card is misconfigured. i am brand new to unix and freebsd. i thought i saw somwhere where i can put a custom configuration ini type file on my startup boot disk. my problem is that i have no other machine that can read the disk to install the file :( are there any other suggestions save get an ide controller in the machine and install an idea drive and ide cd rom drive? that would be a bummer. thanks Eric At 07:49 AM 2/15/98 -0500, Matthew N.
