Hi, I have installed a FreeBSD on box with a 70 gb raid array. It works perfectly, I get no errors when I run the install and the when the installtion is finished I reboot the system. I get to the boot manager after the bios of my computer and scsi cards have probed my computer, And get a menu with this F1 FreeBSD F2 FreeBSD F5 Drive 1 But it does boot anything, If i press F1 & F2 it only beeps at me. I can press any key and still beeps at me. I can press F5 however, then i get menu: F1 FreeBSD F2 Drive 2 If I then press F2 nothing happens except that it prints out a new line with the crussor blinking. If I press F5 and wait some seconds I get: Invalid partition Invalid partition No /boot/loader >> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT Default: 1:ad(1,a)/boot/loader boot: Invalid partition No /kernel >> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT Default: 1:ad(1,a)/boot/loader boot: My root partion on the raid array is amrd0s0a if im not dead wrong so it think somehow my bootloader try to use ad1a as my root partion, am I right? Any help will be partiated Mvh Mattias Björk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
