The OS I am loading is currently FreeBSD 5.3 I went to adaptec and found some information about FreeBSD 4.11 so I tried. I can get Solaris 10 to load but it fails to find the raid as a valid drive. Fedora Core 2 also boots and says it can't find a drive. The Raid boots up fine and builds with no faults. When I install a little 850 meg IDE drive and set that to master, Still the btx loader dies. Here is what the final screen says: /boot/kernel/acpi.ko text=0x3fbfc data=0x1c04+0x112c syms=[0x4+0x72f0+0x4+0x97c7] / int=0000000d err=00000000 efl=00030002 eip=00005755 eax=00000001 ebx=00000008 ecx=000039ff edx=00000082 esi=0000579c edi=0000e873 edi=000003ba esp=0000037e cs=f000 ds=0040 es=f000 fs=9dc0 gs=f000 ss=9c46 cs:eip=2e 0f 01 14 0f 20 c0 0c-01 0f 22 c0 eb 00 8e db 8e c3 8e e3 8e eb 0f 20-c0 24 fc 0f 22 c0 ea 78 ss:esp=11 64 08 00 01 00 00 00-00 f0 c0 9d 02 02 51 e8 05 00 c2 ee 05 00 00 f0-00 00 1a 7d c4 5e dd e6 BTX Halted I think I copied all that correctly.
