I have tried same machine with 5.2-CURRENT-20040623-JPSNAP.iso which can be obtained from http://snapshots.jp.freebsd.org/. Installer can recognize SATA RAID1 drive as aacd0 :-). A few steps were processed without any error but installer stopped after following message: Making a new root filesystem on /dev/aacd0s1a With "ALT-F2", I saw some messages which was ended with the following line: Entropy device is blocking. Dance fandango on keyboard to unblock. But I cannot install to Dell PowerEdge 750 SCSI RAID1(PERC 4/SC) with same ISO image, too. So there may be some problem which is not related with SATA. I hope it will be fixed on FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE :-). ----- UEDA Hiroyuki <ueda@netforest.ad.jp> Net Forest Inc., JAPAN
