Hello, I am having a problem with installing FreeBSD 6.1 on an Acer Altos G320 Server with a LSI Logic V3 SATA RAID Controller. The raid array consists of 3 80Gb hard drives in a raid 0 configuration with 64Kb stripes. FreeBSD correctly detects the RAID controller and the logical hard drive, and also installs without any errors. Although on boot up (into the installation cd) it gives the following warning: lsiv3 > 2 disk support untested!! Nevertheless, it installs properly. When I reboot the Server after the installation is complete I get the following errors from the boot loader: Not ufs Not ufs No /boot/loader FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel boot: Not ufs no /boot/kernel/kernel FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel boot: Even trying the following at the "boot:" prompt doesn't work: ar(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel This line just gives a system beep. After some more fiddling at the "boot:" prompt I noticed that when I type in "ad(1,a)/boot/kernel/kernel" it gives me the error: error 8 lba 0 No /boot/kernel/kernel Is that anything significant? And is there any solution to my problem? Thankyou for any help!
