When I boot and run fdisk from sysinstall (under "Custom"), it tells me "No disks found!" and then points me to the hardware guide. Nothing in the hardware guide really seems to apply. Any one else get FreeBSD installed on an R210? Is there a BIOS setting that I need to check or something? I've spent about a week on this and will need to return both R210s soon if I can't get them working.
