>Description:
I try to install FreeBSD 5.2.1 on a machine with the Hardware that followed:
Dual P2*400 MHZ CPU
512 Mbyte ECC RAM
Mylex 960 SCSI RAID controller
5*9 Gbyte IBM HDD's

When i try to install it, there comes very soon this one

/stand/sysinstall running as init on vty0
panic: integer divide fault
cpuid = 0;
boot() called on cpu#0

syncing disks, buffers remaining... 164 164 164 usw

giving up on 64 buffers
uptime: 20s
mlx0: flushing cache..done
GEOM: destroy disk mldxd0 dp=0xc4aefd8c
mlxd0: detached
GEOM: destroy disk mlxd1 dp=0xc4aefc8c
mldx1: detached
Autoamtic reboot in 15 seconds



when i change the  drive geometry from the Mylex 960 drive from 8 gbyte to 2 gbyte, i get the install screen, can choose the install form, can partitons the HDD's, choose my packets, the install type etc. then he begin to copy from CDROM. then, some seconds later ( he still copy's staff from the CD ) there comes the same output again as above ( with other buffer values )
>How-To-Repeat:
Here it repeat's every time i wanted to install it or what you mean ;)
