I forgot to add. Tried a second Asus P5A-B. The only hardware difference was
a AMD 500MHz as opposed to the AMD 300MHz in the first machine. All the
rest was identical.

It failed at the same point.

Just did openBSD and RedHat CD install and they both installed fine.

So what is the problem with the Asus P5A-B and FreeBSD ???

Regards...Martin
