Hi I have a new box here a Intel DP45GS and a Quad core Intel with 4GB ram tha= t I would like to install FreeBSD on. I've tried booting with 7.0, 7.1, 7.2 and 8-BETA2 amd64 and all get stuck o= n: Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/md0 I found the following: http://blog.elitecoderz.net/freebsd-freezes-on-trying-to-mount-root-from-uf= sdevmd0-and-is-stucked/2009/01/ Which suggests disabling USB2 I don't seem to have that bios option and tri= ed disabling USB completely, but still no joy. (also leaves me without a ke= yboard ;-)=20 There are no PATA ports for me to mount an older cdrom and there are only U= SB ports on the motherboard. I'm a bit stuck as to how I should proceed, a= ny ideas welcome. Kind regards -- David Peall=20
