I tried to install 6.0-BETA3 on this system: - ASUS P5GD1 motherboard (ICH-6R controller). - Pentium 4 processor, 3 GHz, 800 MHz FSB. - Two 200 GB SATA drives in RAID mode. - 1 GB RAM. The standard install process went fine except for two things: - Onboard LAN (Win627EHF I/O chip) undetected. - When I try to extract distributions to disk, I get the following messages: Write failure on transfer! (wrote XXXXXX of YYYYYYY bytes) The same happens if I try ar0 (RAID device) or ad8 (single disk device). I did not have this problem installing 5.4-RELEASE, except that ar0 (RAID) was not detected, and once I installed the distributions and finished the install, 5.4 refused to boot even in non-RAID mode (because of a GEOM problem, most likely). Found the same problem with the 6.0-snapshot CD of july 2005. Carlos
