The 1542 is supported by the 'aha' driver, and this driver will search all of the supported locations for the 1542. There isn't a "Storage" menu in sysinstall. You should try booting without making any configuration changes first, and let the system try to sort itself out. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
