I'm not sure whether this is because it cannot find the controller or the hard drive. After searching through the FAQ and mailing list I found one article that suggested to boot with the -c option and remove all controllers except the ahc controller. Did that. Still couldn't find the hard drive. So, as it was booting into the config mode I made a note of the messages across the screen. Here are two that I think are pertinent...and I think one may also have to do with the Ethernet adapter. PCI0: 9: vendor = 0x10b7 device = 09055 class = ethernet [no driver assigned] PCI0: 11: vendor = 0x9005 device = 0x0010 class = storage ( scsi ) int a irq 10 [no driver assigned] Thats all I could find in the boot up sequencing messages...any ideas? I'm at a dead end and pretty much hosed with this great server ( That I refuse to make a microsloth slave ).
