Now the geometry is all screwed up. I'm really pissed off. NeXTStep, Solaris, and my DOS partition are toasty critters with the onslaught of the geometry ignorant FreeBSD. Apparently, FreeBSD is not compatable with the BIOS translation of ALL Adaptec SCSI cards. Everything else seems to work, including Linux. I guess FreeBSD isn't all it's crack up to be. Excuse the above, but I'm quite pissed right now, proabaly because of a moronic bug in the retarded Label utility.
