i tried to install FreeBSD 13 and 12 - it failed. with the same error even =
worse.
i then tried to install FreeBSD 11.4-R, it works with no issues at all, i t=
hen upgraded to 12.2-R. everything works fine.

it worth to mention that when i tried to burn the iso to flash drive using =
"Unetbootin" (several times) i had errors installing, when i used the comma=
nd line to burn the iso, it works

Subject: Has anyone been able to successfully install FreeBSD on a Dell R73=
0?

I just recently had a task to install some Dell R730 servers with
FreeBSD 13 amd64 but no matter what I do, I can't seem to get the iso
installer to get past usb and mfi/mrsas timeout errors.

USB errors similar to
uhub_reattach_port: port 1 reset failed, error=3DUSB_ERR_TIMEOUT
uhub_reattach_port: device problem (USB_ERR_TIMEOUT), disabling port 1
uhub_reattach_port: port 1 reset failed, error=3DUSB_ERR_TIMEOUT
uhub_reattach_port: device problem (USB_ERR_TIMEOUT), disabling port 1

and mfi gives COMMAND TIMEOUT AFTER xx SECONDS over and over.

mrsas just crashes.

Trying to install FreeBSD 12 results in kernel panic mid boot but it
flashes too fast to see what it's crashing on.

Any ideas?
