I tried your build. The Mylex is being recognised. Disklabel is writing information's onto the disks and the "partitions" (sorry, still thinking in NT...) where successfully created. Then I choose "minimal" and the installation starts. And now to the part, where I was nearly started crying: - the copy process gets slower and slower - it seems like the machine freezes when I opened the console "alt+f2" I saw this nice messages: -> mlx0: I/O error - attempt to write beyond end of drive I updated the Mylex bios to 2.7 (3.xx would work but I don't know by now where to get this 2nd chip...) I went back to NT console and installed it. It worked... Restarted the FreeBSD installation. Same error. Any ideas???

For now it (the miniinst.iso; disc2.iso is still uploading) is as http://people.freebsd.org/~wilko/alpha-snap I'm waiting for David's input on how to get it on ftp-master.
