Hi all!

I was attempting to install 5.3-RELEASE on an old laptop (Twinhead
P166 32MB RAM 2 GB HDD), and the hardware detection went smoothly
including detection of the hdd (ad0). However, during sysintall an
error occurred - "No disks found".

I was able to successfully install DragonFlyBSD and FreeBSD
5.2.1-RELEASE, but not 5.3.

I thought using the latest release would provide better hardware
detection and support. But then again, why this weirdness?

Thanks

Irvin
