Is there a risk that I lose all data on my disk, when
changing this in the BIOS?

BTW: During the fresh FreeBSD install, I have never
encountered a choice for formatting with or without
LBA. In the Fdisk window, I choose 'use entire disk
for FreeBSD', and in the partition window I have set
'newfs' for all partitions.

Thanks,
Rob.
