The installer will recognize it, and it'll install, but the installation says something about "bios can't reach partition" or some nonsense. 2.0 worked just fine. What's up? FWIW, the parameters for the hard drive are 2448/16/63 (cyl/hd/sec). -Jason Miller jason@indy.net http://www.indy.net/~jason/index.html -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.6.2 mQCPAy+4V/wAAAEEAK6FKzhiCBfBuCk6Fayk4szGvwPVWMB6Z+C+xbrOGixVevo/ VOzJzsJMBsPWvuZispyu11H3dF2hjxN8hgbPh86LqqTSE2U4FfeVC5RpRQn4IfZi Jp3F+77e91+D8JqI+7Whbts4n+IoujRQg7z6xP+xjwcwVwSasVJ8ULgm7XG5ABEB AAG0HUphc29uIE1pbGxlciA8amFzb25AaW5keS5uZXQ+iQCVAwUQL7vzw1J8ULgm 7XG5AQFCNAP+KxtVoHjcZoqdjhohqBIYtrqbXe5eTBeHxR+IXUxW/WnqfiZPAo4J UtIUuZNS10axKwciUqB+poHZRfA6sgyJZ2zMY7sNzyV1YrD4a8CI4h6+Dz2Et6R8 1t2m/te3Kx0G8tGQzGBY0yKrFP2eBS0eY213uNdLK3Y5+9eZwaGCZ/E= =pNMz -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
