Hi,

after installation, I answered the various questions, configured the networ=
k=20
and selected to "visit the ports collection". I selected a few packages and=
=20
proceeded to install.
This hanged sysinstall completely. The emergency shell was still work, but=
=20
sysinstall could not be killed (even using -KILL) and pkg_add and related=20
processes had a pid 0.

It took about 15 seconds for the "Installing ... from acd0" message to turn=
=20
up, and that also is the last thing I saw.

I used VTY4 to reboot the machine and packages are now installing correctly=
=20
from cd-rom. The only thing "odd" about this installation procedure, is tha=
t=20
I left the machine running the base install, and came back roughly an hour=
=20
later, so the cdrom wasn't used for at least > 30 minutes.

This is an Asus PII-BS motherboard, one SCSI drive, one secondary master cd=
=20
rom. As soon as I've got the machine up and running, I can send specifics,=
=20
like dmesg.boot.

Since I suspect this to be an ATA problem - if somebody from the ata team=20
needs a specific command to be run, or hardware / bios config let me know.
