 Experiencing same problem.
 
 MSI-9129 with Promise PDC20276 (MBfasttrak133) onboard raid controller,
 using raid 1 setup. All ide drives are attached to raid controller other
 then cd drive booting cd images. Brand new array, drives are blank.
 
 Attempting to install 6.0-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso or
 6.0-RELEASE-i386-bootonly.iso ends with some unreadable values scrolling
 vertically across screen in rapid succession. Rebooting machine pauses
 text briefly with values and "BTX Halted" message.
 
 Message format is similar to message noted in derekm.nospam@rogers.com
 message. Can not verify if it is exactly the same or not since text is
 there for extremely short period of time when resetting. Have no method to
 capture.
 
 Booting from 6.0-RELEASE fdd images works fine.
 
 FBSD 4.11 operates without a hitch on the same system.
