I can't seem to do it directly off the drives... so I'll have to do it off floppy until either that box can be upgrade to 4.x-Stable (if that is even the problem) or I find a solution. I just need to load the kernel off the floppy (so I can access the RAID controller), set currdev=disk1s1a, then boot the kernel off that disk. Are there any scripts/examples of how to do this? I've tried messing with loader.rc off the boot floppy, but it doesn't work. It just goes right into the installer....
