I don't know exactly what I did differently, but I decided to just break down and start from scratch. - reset CMOS settings to default - configured the SATA controller as RAID - configured BIOS to boot off SATA RAID - deleted and recreated the RAID mirror via the Intel config manager - installed FreeBSD (6.0-RELEASE), configuring ar0 as the destination for install - popped out the CD, rebooted and HOORAAAAYY!! I could of swarn that I'd done that several times, but it may of been the order I did it this time or something. Now I've got my 4GB RAM, 200GB RAID P4 2.8 ready to do something useful. (It's been a paperweight for over a month and a half ;) Thanks to all who gave any input into this issue! Steve > > Steve > > > >
