It worked. Thanks a lot! Looks like the fe0 driver was the one messing it up for my ep0. Now back to the install. Another weird thing: as you could see in the boot dump, a Seagate UDMA2 drive has been detected. After sysinstall starts, I see the following messages on vty1: ad0: ad_timeout: lost disk contact - resetting ata0: resetting devices .. ata0-master: timeout waiting for command=ef s=fc e=00 ata0-master: timeout waiting to give command=ef s=fc e=00 ata0-master: timeout waiting to give command=ef s=fc e=00 ad0: ad_timeout: lost disk contact - resetting ata0: resetting devices .. ata0-master: timeout waiting for command=ef s=fc e=00 ata0-master: timeout waiting to give command=ef s=fc e=00 ata0-master: timeout waiting to give command=ef s=fc e=00 ad0: ad_timeout: lost disk contact - resetting ata0: resetting devices .. ata0-master: timeout waiting for command=ef s=fc e=00 ata0-master: timeout waiting to give command=ef s=fc e=00 ata0-master: timeout waiting to give command=ef s=fc e=00 ad0: ad_timeout: lost disk contact - resetting ata0-master: timeout waiting for command=ef s=fc e=00 ad0: ad_timeout: trying fallback to PIO mode ata0: resetting devices .. done and the setup continues as if nothing has happened. The drive is configured as PIO mode 4 in the BIOS (the BIOS does not support UDMA, the chipset apparently does). Any pointers?
