I'm running FreeBSD-current on a Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe motherboard in i386 mode. Since I run "current" I'm used to certain side effects that require a livefs to undo some damage :-) I have SATA disks in raid mode which work just fine. Also I have a SATA dvdburner, which although able to boot either the install cd's and livefs cds, is not able to mount the fixit livefs ("fixit" prompt) mentioned in the previous posts. I need to attach my old ide cdrom drive to be able to do that. I'm pretty much used to this annoyance by now, but maybe it is a driver thing that needs to be looked into? Ralph Zitz.
