Hey list, I'm trying to install FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE on a Dell PowerApp 120 (1550) I just purchased. The system claims to have an AIC 7899 SCSI host adapter. I've currently got a known-good 9GB Fujitsu hard disk in the system, as ID 0. During installation, the disk comes up as da0. After going through all the options for install, etc, I get an error when it tries to write the file systems: "Unable to find device node for /dev/da0s1b in /dev!" and mentions that installation is aborting. At first I thought it was a problem with the SCSI backplane, but RHEL and Window 2000 Server both install and operate without problems. Thanks for your advice! Eric Crist
