Cannot work with such large drive. I tried to a secondary 122 MB Quantum CHS disk. My problem is I have an ATAPI CD ROM, which FreeBSD 2.0 doesnot recognize. If I transfer all files to first disk in a dos partition, that would solve my problem of CD ROM, but how can I do it? And how I can instruct that the /dos directory should be located on another disk? Please reply by email to savas01@ibm.net
