Hi All!

This is my first message to this list. I currently have 5 DS20
alphaservers running alpha linux, and am quite unhappy with it because of
memory leakage, stateful netfilter problems and many unaligned traps...
So I am thinking of taking up FreeBSD on my servers to see how it works.
The problem is that I am now having problems with installing it on
the DS20s ...
I boot normally with FreeBSD for Alpha CD, but when I try to find the HDs
the installation program reports that no HD was found in the system. This
is very strange since SRM reports dbk100 and dkb200 as present on the
system.
Does anybody have any ideas on how to get the hds recognized? Is there any
tweaks to be applied? Do I have to set any special variable on SRM to have
them found?

Thanks for your help,

Eduardo.
