You created the array and waited until scrubbing was finished? The Dell Management CD is not a good checking point because you can create the raid array's use-ing this cd(You can also create the array in the raid bios). So try to install nt and if that works then freebsd must install without any trouble. > > I'm not certain how to create a boot floppy with the Generic compiled > kernel in it, so some guidance on how to do it, or further pointers on my > folly in the PERC configuration, would be much appreciated. > Try downloading the iso of freebsd 4.3-stable but the boot floppy's must work also. For the iso use ftp..freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.3-install.iso. I attached my dmesg of a dell 2400 with PERC 2/Si raid.
