Hello:

I have 2 HDD's both Western digital 40 Gigs, I am trying to install
FreeBSD release 4.3 on the primary HDD. They are in a master slave
configuration. Primary is WDC WD400AB-32BVA0 and the slave is WDC
WD400BB-75AUA1

Initially when I had only HDD the install used to go off fine till it
wanted to look for the sets either from FTP , local dir , CD etc... Now
since putting in the 2nd drive in a M/S the install just dies after the
initial screen where it says 'Probing devices please wait' nothing
works I even kept the PC on for 2 hrs to see if it goes ahead...

Is there any resolution to this issue other than pulling out the slave
hard drive ?

Thanks in advance

P.s posting to both since config doesn't seem to have a lot of activity...
