Wang) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: Install FreeBSD on EIDE Date: 26 Nov 1995 17:08:41 GMT Organization: University of Houston Lines: 10 Message-ID: <49a6up$3db@masala.cc.uh.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: bayou.uh.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Hi, I'd like install FreeBSD on my PC. Before installation I'd like to know some information here: Can FeeBSD be installed on EIDE hard disk? I have 1.2G hard disk and a very old BIOS which doesn't support EIDE hard disk, so I have to load EIDE disk manager first. However, this method didn't work under Linux, how about the FreeBSD. Does it also require a new BIOS? Thanks for advance. Ye
