I am having serious problems installing BSD on my system... Simply, BSD cannot
find my Hard Drive.  It became appareent somehow that BSD only supports the
Adaptec 1542 SCSI controller... Is this true... Will I never be able to install
until I have one of these controllers????? HELP!!!!!  I get the error message
upon running install that there is no HD found, but I can install on my TV.

My TV??? What TV??

Thanks in advance...

 Well it worked with DOS, and it doesn't with OS2...  Must be
 the OS... The fact that the BIOS was HARDWIRED incorrectly couldn't
 have anything to do with it, Right?     -----Roland of Gilead-----   }
