I'm hitting another DEAD wall.

I finally got to the installation screen, it detects the HD, but "FreeBSD
DiskLabel Editor" is not able to WRITE/CHANGE anything on the HDD.

This is what I get when I try to WRITE something on the disk:

===============================================
*ad0: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (0 retries left) LBA=0
GEOM: ad0: corrupt or invalid GPT detected.
GEOM: ad0: GPT rejected -- may not be recoverable.*
===============================================

And then I get a message saying it can't wirte on ad0 disk etc..


Question number 1:
*Any suggestions/help on resolving this?*

Question n.2:
*How do I disable ACPI on boot on IA64 machines?
*

Thanks a lot!

PS: HDD works fine under Debian Linux, using fdisk I'm able to
change/delete/add partitions without a problem, which makes me think it's
not a hardware issue.
