The following reply was made to PR bin/52271; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Christopher M. Giordano" <CGiordano@ids.net> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, andrew@ugh.net.au Cc: Subject: Re: bin/52271: sysinstall panics in machine with no hard drive Date: Sat, 30 Aug 2003 14:36:07 -0400 I have experienced the exact same symptoms while trying to boot the install CD-ROM for 5.1-RELEASE on my new Intel 875P motherboard system. I have two SATA hard drives in a RAID 0 config (NTFS format for Win XP), so I'm assuming that FreeBSD is not seeing them correctly and is reacting as if no drives are in the system. I _can_ boot the 5.0-RELEASE CD-ROM, however, which then reports that there are no hard drives in system. I am currently trying different BIOS settings to see whether the "legacy" mode will make them appear as regular IDE drives. In any case, it seems like this should not cause a panic.
