Hi,
	I guess I might have partition problem. The disk I used to install 
NetBSD is Quantum 1080AT, 2112 CYL, 16 heads, 64 sec. During the 
installation NetBSD report,
	Real Geom:  2112 cyl, 16 heads, 63 sec
	BIOS Geom:  528 cyl, 64 heads, 64 sec
I also use the entire disk for installation. It still has the same 
problem described previously. Is this geom setup correct?

Please help, Thanks.
