I did the following to verify: 1) Installed 7.2-RC2 on the Perc 4e/Si H430 machine (RAID1), this went fine. 2) Turned off, and placed one drive in the machine with Perc 4e/Si H435, boot went fine and no long delays after amr0.... So the problem as I encountered with 7.1-RELEASE-p4 is not present in 7.2-RC2. There are some messages about GEOM_LABEL and GEOM_LABEL: Label .... removed, which I haven't seen before. If they are of any interest let me know. Regards, Jeroen p.s. I copied the subject from the original thread. I haven't attempt to install 7.1-RELEASE myself. If it is of any additional value, I can try to install the 7.1- RELEASE directly to verify if it fails. Scott Long wrote: > The just-released 7.2-RC2 should fix this problem.
