My machine has dual PIII 550MHz, 512 MB RAM, SmartArray 221 Raid Controller with a RAID 5 Array (4 x 18.2GB). I choose 5.0 because of the listed support for the RAID controller, but will be happy with any version that works. The CD boots until it finds the DLT Tape Drive and then received the following error messages: Mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0 /stand/sysinstall running as init on vty0 panic: general protection fault syncing disks, buffers remaining... panic: bdwrite: buffer is not busy Uptime: 20s Any help is appreciated. I am a FreeBSD newbie. Scott To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
