If I install FreeBSD on it's own SCSI drive, and have an IDE which I have been booting from, where is the MBR software installed? Will it be put on wd0 or sd0? I have a Buslogic 425c VLB controller. Do I have to turn on the BIOS in order for the MBR to access the attached drive since none of the software device drivers will installed at the time the MBR executes. There must be someone out there using a setup other that a single 2GB drive like that used in the documentation. Thanks in advance Rip Toren rpt@miles.sso.loral.com›
