After installing FreeBSD on the Seagate, it refuses to boot from Boot Manager, going back to the F1 prompt. Performing the same installation on a Quantum 4Gb worked perfectly. I think the problem is in the drive geometry settings but have tried various combinations without success.. Has anyone got FreeBSD booting from an ST31230N? What geometry settings did you use?. regards Tony tonyj@werple.net.au
