I have an IBM Netstar 8.0 GB and an older IBM 2.5 GB
(Ultra-2 SE) dive.  Both of these are SCSI drives. 
When the system boots from CD, I am prompted for the
install.  

Sequence:
[vt220]: "Enter"

At this point, no drives show up on the list.  I have
tried each drive independently and the result is the
same.  I am using the Intel C440GX+ Server Board with
dual processor capability.  At this time only 1
processor occupies slot 1.  Additionally, there is 256
MB of RAM.  

The system BIOS does show the presence of the drive. 
I don't understand why BSD fails to locate these
drives.

Please note that Windows 2000 installs without this
problem.


Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,

James Weckbaugh
