I am having problems installing FreeBSD 2.2-960501-SNAP to my system that
has 3 IDE Hard Drives (2 WD 1.6 GB, and 1 WD 2.5 GB HD). The FreeBSD
2.2-960501-SNAP Installation floppy will start to load, but after the
waiting at "boot:" ends I receive "ERROR: C:0 H:0 S:0".
My System is configured as follows:
drive 0: WD 1.6 GB
0 774 MB PRI DOS
1 774 MB FreeBSD
drive 1: WD 1.6 GB
0 774 MB PRI DOS
1 774 MB FreeBSD
drive 2: WD 2.5 GB
0 803 MB PRI DOS
1 611 MB Extended DOS
2 1024 MB FreeBSD
To get my system to reconize the drive I had to set Translation to
Extended CHS and Auto Configure in CMOS. With the Above Configuration I
can Install FreeBSD 2.1.0 to all the drives.
I can get FreeBSD 2.2-960501-SNAP to install, only after I disconnect the
WD 2.5 GB HD from the system. But as soon as I connect the WD 2.5 GB HD,
FreeBSD 2.2-960501-SNAP boots with the error msg "ERROR: C:0 H:0 S:0".
Any help solving my SNAP problem would be appriciated.

Looking Forward to 2.2-RELEASE.
