I called Adaptec tech support about this, and it stumped them as well as driving me nuts for a few hours. Here is the problem: I install the Adaptec 2110S, create a RAID 1 array using their utility. I then try to boot any FreeBSD ISO image from CDROM and I keep getting "read error" upon boot. What's weird is, I *can* boot the Adaptec CD, which is a Linux kernel, and I can also boot a Win 2k CD. If I remove the RAID card, I can boot anything, including FreeBSD. Hardware: Tyan S2466 Tiger MPX w/2 Athlon 1600MPs BIOS v 4.0.1 1GB ECC RAM 2 x IBM 10k U160 36GB SCA SCSI Adaptec 2110S SCSI RAID card EIDE CDROM set as Primary Master and first boot device no floppy I've already tried alternate CDROM drives and cables. Adaptec had me fiddle with some of their settings to no effect. Any ideas? TIA, James Smallacombe PlantageNet, Inc.
