Then again, I feel this is a BSD boot problem too. 
Here's what I have:

DEC Venturis 5100, 16 MB, Seagate 2GB, Adaptec 2940, FreeBSD 2.1.5 == BOOTS!
DEC Venturis 5133, 16 MB, Seagate 1GB, Adaptec 2940, FreeBSD 2.2.2 = READ ERROR
same box above with 2940AU ultra, 1GB Seagate ultra, FreeBSD 2.2.2 = READ ERROR
same box above with 1542, 1GB Seagate, FreeBSD 2.2.2 = BOOTS

BUT, if I remember right, I have also tried installing 2.1.5 in the 2nd listed
machine and got 'read error'. Ugh.

Roger and good luck.
