Hi,
I am trying to install FreeBSD on a Dell 2450 RAID 5 machine.
When I boot off of the 4.1.1 CD, it tells me that there is no disks in the system.  I see the system detect a Adaptec 7899 device.
What can be the problem?

The system is currently running win2k, and it boots perfectly off the raid.  The system is a test server, and it's moving from 2k to fbsd (i will reformat)
