3.7. I want to install FreeBSD onto a SCSI disk that has more than 1024 cylinders. How do I do it?

This depends. If you don't have DOS (or another operating system) on the system, you can just keep the drive in native mode and simply make sure that your root partition is below 1024 so the BIOS can boot the kernel from it. It you also have DOS/some other OS on the drive then your best bet is to find out what parameters that it thinks you have before installing FreeBSD. When FreeBSD's installation procedure prompts you for these values, you should then enter them rather than simply going with the defaults.

There is a freely available utility distributed with FreeBSD called ``pfdisk'' (located in the tools/dos-tools subdirectory) which can be used for this purpose.
