It is probed : at IO address 0xc8000 and IRQ 5 by default. If this doesn't match : your hardware setup (sorry, i've once seen such a beast, but i cannot : remember if it has any jumpers or not), boot with the -c option, and : modify the kernel with UserConfig. Refer to the handbook under : http://www.freebsd.org/, or to the on-line documentation after booting : the installation floppy (you could read it even without your Seagate : driver working). : What's the INSTALL program? Do you mean `sysinstall'? (Actually, : lowercase, since it's a Unix program.) It't being loaded if you boot : the boot floppy. : What is only DOS compat? This (partial) sentence remains innuclear to : me. :) I am trying to install from A CD ROM under a DOS System. I have already attempted several times to make a workable boot up disk. None have worked.. I apoligize, If I was unclear. I was confused with wether the driver for Seagate was in the kernel or not. U' see the boot up disk isn't booting either. My system spends an enormous amount of time dealing with a probe but it appears there is no disk access, etc.. I will attempt another bootup tho.. -- William O'Hara e-mail: ohara@tiac.net Queen & Immortal Flag-Waver url: http://www.tiac.net/users/ohara/
