Unfortunately, any time the disk partitioning section within } the install program was reached, I got the message "No disks found! } Check ..." I have heard of problems caused by those HP drives before. I guess it is best to diagnose this on the phone. (You can call me at the phone number from my signature, and I don't mind being called after 21:00). } However, the two disks as well as the scsi cdrom are recognized by the } kernel when booting.

BTW, I also browsed } the mailing-list archives on www.freebsd.org, but I only found } questions (concerning this topic), no answers. Is this correct? There have been reports of problems with multiple tagged START UNIT commands being sent to the drive. But we better talk about this on the phone, since I never heard of a failure to install to those drives. (The existing problem can be worked around, but it will most likely be cured by a change to the generic SCSI code.)
