Thanks, 5.2-beta-amd64 doesn't crash like that. However, the sATA controller onboard the Tyan K8W apparently isn't recognized by FreeBSD. I don't have a parallel ATA drive handy today. The HighPoint 1820 still causes a crash in the BTX loader whether or not there is a drive attached. This is a new controller design with an option ROM that is probably new code, and probably a new silicon architecture, so I don't know how critical this is beyond figuring out how to make BTX more defensive.

Please try the 5.2 Beta or RC1. A LOT has stablized since 5.1.
