I=B9m a newbie who assembled a PC. I successfully loaded FreeBSD 6.0 from CD
but at the end of install when the system reboots, it goes thru the start-u=
p
process (the ASUS screen) and finally I get a message saying to use the
proper boot device or insert boot media and try again. I rechecked the BIOS
and sure enough, the striped HD is the first boot device. Any ideas? Thank
you.

2 x 512 Corsair 667 DDR2 RAM
