I have a new XPS 700 Pentium D 3.6 Dual Core with 2 gigs RAM, 2 250 GB SATA drives, and 2 NVIDIA GeForce 7900GS video cards. So far I have tried: 6.0-RELEASE - will boot to sysinstall but finds no drives. 6.1-RELEASE - hangs after probing md0 and first hard drive. 6.1-STABLE - hangs after probing md0 and first hard drive. 7.0-CURRENT - hangs after probing md0 and both hard drives. I have unplugged the USB keyboard and mouse and used a PS/2 keyboard. Disabling ACPI causes a panic on all versions. Anyone have a clue what it will take to install on this machine? -- Frank
