Hey.

	I'm trying to setup FreeBSD on one of my old 486 DX2's, running at
66MHz.  When I get to the hardware setup thing, the visual one (B&W), I
remove all hardware I don't have and configure what I do.  I quit, save
and continue to sysinstall.  It sits and hangs at "Probing devices, please
wait..".  I scroll up and I see it detects all the hardware I have, no
errors.  In the DEBUG terminal, I see the lines:
DEBUG: ioctl(3, TIOCCONS, NULL) = 0 (success)
DEBUG: Can't open PC-card controller /dev/card0.
DEBUG: Can't open USB controller.

After about 10 minutes I see:
(da0:aha0:0:0:0): CCB 0xc32373f4 - timed out
(da0:aha0:0:0:0): CCB 0xc32373f4 - timed out
aha0: aha_cmd: Timeout waiting for adapter idle
ahainitmboxes: Initialization command failed
aha0: No longer in timeout
(da0:aha0:0:0:0): Synchronize cache failed, status == 0x4b, scsi status == 0x0

Then it repeats after a few more minutes.

The hardware I have:
Adaptec AHA1452 SCSI1/2 Controller
D-Link DE220CT NIC
Goldstar Prime 2C IDE Controller
Trident 9000 Video Card
486 DX2 66MHz Chip
2X SCSI CD-ROM
1.2GB Quantum BIGFOOT IDE Harddrive
400MB Quantum Full height SCSI1 Harddrive
NEC 765 Diskdrive

The only thing it doesnt list when I scroll up are the specific names of
the CD-ROM (not listed period), Trident card, NIC, and IDE controller (it
finds the IDE drive however).

I'm at a loss.  Any help would be appreciated.
