and how might i do that on my flash card?  I read a little about boot0cfg
(man pages) and see the option -o packet  .. is this what i need?
how would i go about setting this in my flashcard that is mounted in another
freebsd system?

i read that packet mode == LBA mode BIOS setting?  is this true?
(http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-January/018907.html
)
if so, LBA does not work either.  The same result happens.

i nudge in the right direction would be much appreciated :)
