Hi, I have a DIGITAL Server 5305 (AKA AlphaServer 1200) with a Mylex DAC960 Raid controller, every time I try and install FreeBSD 4.8 on it comes up with an error, mlx0: I/O error - attempt to write beyond end of drive. I have tried to install FreeBSD 5.0 and 5.1 but there appears to be no drivers for the controller included in the setup disks (kern and mfsroot), I appears there are drivers in the drivers.flp but I have no idea how to load them into the system. I have tried using Raid 5 and also no raid (each disk is independent), Still no lucky. Can some please explain how to get round these problems. Thanks, Anthony.
