Hello,
First and foremost i'm new to using FreeBSD, so forgive the newbie cry for
help. But I do have experience on Linux, so know my way about a *nux
environment.
I'm currently trying to install version 5.0-CURRENT, my problem is that when
I boot off of the CDROM, it starts loading fine, probes the hardware, then
it comes up with the message:
ata0: resetting devices
at which point it hangs. I have disabled the loading of ACPI drivers as
explained in the install.txt file, but this alas has not helped.
My hardware is as follows:
Asus P4SC-E motherboard
Intel CPU
Seagate Barracuda HDD
and Acer CDRW drive.
Can anyone please provide some insite into my problem and perhaps also
additional resource locations.
Many thanks
-James
