Just put together a nice 1U box, Tyan Tank GT20, plugged in its 8gb ECC RAM,
its 4 shiney new HDs and fired it up.  Bios looks normal, reset the clock to
something resembling today, and throw in the Fbsd7 disk!

No joy. 

I get just a hint of a "booting" line, then an instant reboot, or with a 6
disk, I get a scrolling mess that I have no idea what it says.

My question, has anyone got fbsd running on one of these chipsets?  If so,
how did you do it?  Tried 7 release in i386 and amd64 version, and v6 i386.
They all do the same thing.

(it will run the misc test CDs I have here just fine, even let it do most of
a WinXP install with no issues, so I don't really believe it to be a
hardware issue)

Tyan Tank GT20 model B5211
Tyan Toledo i3200R m/b
Intel 3200 MCH chipset.

Help?
