But I have decided to go on 9.2 version and. I booted from usb, create slice and bsd- partitions on IDE hard drive using gpart and newfs. then i used bsdinstall to install the system. after installing i make "shutdown -p now". When i turned my computer on, BIOS did not detect any hard drive. > Then i installed system on SATA hard drive and have got the same result. When i connect this SATA drive to windows machine via USB - disk is OK. After deleting FreeBSD slice and connecting the disk back to AMD64 its BIOS has detected the drive.

If so, try using MBR instead for partitioning your disk. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ freebsd-amd64@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-amd64 To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-amd64-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
