CDROM Disc-1 install fails @ Xorg package choice | Disklabel Editor won't config 2nd RAID drive

Hi,

I'm having some issues installing FreeBSD from the
Disc-1 CDROM.  I'm using a Dell SC420 PowerEdge with
two 80GB drives in a RAID level-1 array.

When I get to the Disklabel Editor, both drives are
shown at top, and I can configure the first using auto
defaults, but when I select the 2nd drive the display
doesn't change - drive 1 is still shown in the Part
column, no matter if I press "a" or anything. (side
question: if and when it's all working, how will I
know if the RAID is doing its thing; is there a
utility for that?) 

Also when I get to the Xorg choices screen I get stuck
in a loop - can't get on to the next config screen.

Thanx, Jeff
