The second installation disk almost finishes loading when the program gets stuck on: "(da0:asr0:0:0:0): Synchronize cache failed, status == 0x1b, scsi status == 0x0" What could this mean? I've been able to install the OS on this machine with the exact same configuration multiple times before. -Rishi
