How old? 32MB is one number which comes to mind from MS-DOS 3.2 days. I've just repaired an old PC for a friend (Pentium 133MMX). While testing, I used an old 10GB HDD I had lying around. The BIOS would only see it as 8GB It didn't understand the existing 10GB bootable Win98 partition/OS on it. -- Dave _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
