Hello-

I am setting up a machine with a 3 channel NetRAID D4943 card and a 
Biostar M7VIG 400.  I have the card set up one one channel with four WD 
9.15GB 10k U2 LVD SCSI  drives in raid 5 and have been able to install 
the OS.  The drive capacity is correctly shown as is the amr 
drive/partitions when I booted the machine off the install floppies to 
install the OS(FreeBSD5.4).  Install seems to go fine and have no 
problems.  When I try to reboot/boot the box, it hits the floppy drive 
and then just hangs(just as specified in the BIOS).  If I change the 
BIOS to not include the scsi bus, then it says that there is not system 
disk.  There are no messages or errors on the screen.

Does anyone have any advice for this?

Thanks,
Bob
