Can I do it from the Install CD?
Yes. You have to select "drop to boot prompt" and type "boot -c". When the kernel start booting it will present the userconf prompt. Type "disable agp" and, if necessary, "disable siside", then "exit". See boot.conf(5) to avoid having to do these steps on every boot Regards Emiliano
