I tried to install FreeB2.1.5 on my second HD ( single on second ide slot ) I have wi*95 on master drive of the first ide slot. ( Well, I've been using Linux for a while and I lately decide to move to FreeBSD. I had no problem to install & run the Linux on my second HD. ) The installation just work fine. But after reboot, nothing happen. I tried to install FreeBSD on my first HD ( 1/2 of DOS and 1/2 of FreeBSD ) and it works.. but Why it is not working on my second HD? ( Maybe you just think, then why not on the first HD? since I have a ws*Digi* 's 1.2 GB which makes cranky noise while read/write under UNI* clone OS.. it is strange there is no more cranky with Win*5. I don;t know why...) So, full of FreeBSD on my second HD is desperate.. :-< I guess the FreeBSD supposed to work only on C: drive, I hope I'm wrong. If there is a way to create boot floppy like as Linux ( it made the boot disks while install so at least don't need to worry whether it is boot or not ) please help me... Thanks in advance...
