>Environment:

AcerAltos 7000, SCSI AIC7870, FreeBSD-3.4R

>Description:

It installs,
then it loads kernel from SCSI
then kernel cannot find any SCSI :-(

try to install FreeBSD on similar ACERish horror before saying "it's not possible"


>How-To-Repeat:

1.  order some ACER machine (preferably older one)
2.  order FreeBSD disks from Walnut Greek
2a. or download FreeBSD from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org
3. install FreeBSD on ACER machine

>Fix:

boot from floppy :-(	
or from IDE drive (haven't tried this one, cause there's no IDE drives)
