We tried 7.0-RELEASE-amd64 and the March 7-STABLE-amd64 snapshot, none of them works. I don't have the entire picture, since I haven't tried installing myself, the machine is 700 km away, but it is an experienced sysadmin doing the installation. After install, which seemingly works, although the console is complaining about IRQ 10 problems (can't say exactly what it complains about), reboot to the fresh install does not work, the machine apparently scrolls away a great number of complaints about IRQ 10. He tried turning off USB, serial and other stuff in BIOS, but it didn't help. He tried Red Hat, and it works perfectly, so my guess is there is something with a FreeBSD driver, dunno for sure which one. sorry I can't be more specific. Has anyone else succeeded in installing FreeBSD 7.0 on HP DL180? (that is 180, not 380, which I know works fine). Thanks for any input. /Palle
