Hi, I've been trying to get FreeBSD installed on my MB (Asus A7V w/ raid) and I can't get the install booted to even begin installation. I've never had a problem like this (and I've run it on everything from 486 to K6-3 MB's). I've tried both FreeBSD 4.5 (latest CD I have thats burnt) and 4.6.2 (floppy install) and both will hang at the same point, when it detects atapi_master1 (ad0). It's a Western Digital 30G HD (UDMA 66) and I've tried with PNP OS On/Off and the Raid on/off plus different HD modes and nothing helps. I booted with the -v parameter and that gives more info but the last message (I can write it down and send it if you'd like) is a successful message. No fail messages at all (except not finding certain devices like parallel port which i have disabled). Anyone have any thoughts they can offer on what I can do to get it booted? I'm willing to try out 5.0 current too if I can get boot floopies for it. Thanks, Daryl (CC me please, I'm not on the list). ===== <---------------------------------------------------------------><BR><- Daryl Chance - A programmer is someone who solves a -><BR><- Programmer - problem you didn't know you had in a -><BR><- ----------------- - way you don't understand. -><BR><- Belial of -E- - - ????? -><BR><---------------------------------------------------------------> __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
