I just booted the 6.2-RC1 install CD on the system, and it seems to work fine. It recognized the SATA controller, the hard drive, and the network ports, and the outputs from fdisk and disklabel were correct. I didn't see any signs of problems. I've been running -current on the system for a week or two without any problems. John
