>Description:
Installation of FreeBSD 5.4 on an i386 with a LSI MegaRAID SATA-150-4. The installation process has done well but after running the sysinstall the boot fails and give the following error message :
"Invalid Partition"
"No /boot/loader"
Seems to looking for the boot loader on a wrong device :
"Default: 0:ad(0,a):/kernel"
"No /kernel"
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a FreeBSD 5.4 with any kind of installation, ACPI activated on an i386. Then at the first reboot after installation, this message will appear... Unable to boot.
