I have the exact same problem on an Asus P5N-E sli board. I have two ide harddrives, two ide optical drives and one sata harddisk connected. After trying to boot FreeBSD 7.0, which gives me "No disks found", i cannot boot in freebsd 6.2 or linux anymore. I have to reboot with the ide harddisks disconnected. And then erboot again (with drives reconnected) before my machine can boot again. (Then both freebsd 6.2 and linxu works again)

This is not a problem in the installer but in the kernel as i get the same result when upgrading (both to 7.0 and 8.0-current)

I thing thes is a very severe problem/bug/regression.. I dont dare to try FreeBSD on a laptop where i cannot disconnect the drives as easily.

dmesg from 6.2 attached. I cannot find a way to provide dmesg from 7.0 from the install cd (disk 1 -- i cannot mount livefs as optical drives are also not found)

Best Regards
Troels
