Thought I would see if my Tyan S1834 + Promise TX2000 makes trouble for the BXT Loader in 5.4-RC2. Unfortunately it seems to - locks up immediately after printing (note - hand transcribed) FreeBSD/i386 bootstrap loader... (root@harlow.cse The unusual factors with the machine are (guessing): 1) 2G RAM 2) All ATA Drives plugged into the Promise TX2000 I would bet on 2) being the problem (i.e. the lack of any drives in the 2 std ATA slots). Any suggestions on the best path for proceeding? It would be highly desirable to be able to upgrade via cd boot. (If I have a spare ATA drive I will see if plugging it into one of the std slots helps). Cheers Mark
