I have installed 4.3 so many times and it always work except for my IBM Netfinity 4500R that uses AIC7899 with 2-CPU. I repeated the install 4X and still it will not boot. The install went through perfectly except the above problem. I have tried using the boot manager or using the MBR(pressing "S" on the single and only partition use just by freebsd, to make it bootable). I have successfully installed 4.3 in a 4-cpu Dell 6450 on PERC RAID controller. BTW, I have installed it successfully on a single CPU Netfinity 4500R and it found the OS when I rebooted after install. I installed Turbo Linux 6.0.4 on the problem server and it's working. What is puzzling is that I have 4.3 installed and is now in production on a similar Netfinity 4500R with 1-cpu. Please help. Thanks. I'm not in the list yet.
