Hi

I've got a Promise SATAII 150 TX2plus (pci) controller connected to my 
Asus A7N8X Deluxe motherboard.
The drive in question is a Maxtor 6B200M0.

First of all, when the drive is connected I can't get any resent FreeBSD 
boot cd to do anything but a "intsant reboot" - it starts to load, some 
text flashes and the computer reboots.

When booting from floppies or with the drive disconnected (just 
reconnect it when I get to the menu) I get this:


ad4:  Maxtor 6B200M0 BANC1B70
ad4:  398297088 sectors [395136C/16H/63S] 16 sectors/intrupts 1 depth queue
ad4:  Promise check1 failed
ad4:  Adaptec check1 failed
ad4:  LSI (v3) check1 failed
ad4:  LSI (v2) check1 failed
ad4:  FreeBSD check1 failed
GEOM: new disk ad4


Any ideas?
The drive passed all the Maxtor PowerMax tests..
Should I get a dmesg?


thanks,
ö
