Date: 3 May 1996 20:14:08 GMT Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana Lines: 18 Message-ID: <4mdpeg$elj@vixen.cso.uiuc.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: alecto.physics.uiuc.edu Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 1.1N (X11; I; IRIX 5.3 IP22) X-URL: news:comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Hi: I have a system with the following (important for this question ?) components: Tyan Titan III PCI mbrd (Triton chipset) with Pentium-75, .. PCI 1MB Cirrus SVGA video card, Western Digital 1.2GB EIDE Hard Drive (run by on-board EIDE controller), .. Zoltrix 14.4 internal faxmodem .. If I plan to have FreeBSD installed on this system, not only I don't want any trouble with what's already shown above, but if I wanted to install from Walnut Creek CD-ROM, what CD drive should I buy ? Any commments from people who have actually done that would be greatly appreciated. Vlad.
