I can't even boot it up in order to get to the main sysinstall screen. As soon as it boots up, it asks "Should I use the pcic controller as an install device" (or words to that effect) and freezes. Has anyone managed to install FreeBSD on such a beast? [I did check the archives and found nothing useful] Thanks Viren -- Viren R.
