Hello,

Well actually i have 2 questions.

1)  I understand from the FAQ that there is a detail instruction
posted by someone on the net for how to compile the system
with a 2nd Drive. Can some one post this to me?

Further i have some brief discription of using config,
will this help? 

Please note that this 2nd drive is on a SCSI controller,
which is currently holding a 200Mb DOS partition, and i wish
to use the remaining 460 Mb for BSD. This is not the 2nd
drive on my IDE controller, which is holding my first drive.

2) Now, i have my first drive ( an IDE ), after installing
BSD on 166Mb partition, everything looks fine, the only
trouble is that everytime i start it, it complains, disklablel
not found error, is this serious? or can i live with it? I don't
want to wake up one day and find this message.

SYSTEM CRASH BECAUSE NO DISKLABEL?


Thanks in advance.

but i will definitely summarise:-)
