The following reply was made to PR i386/122462; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Chris A. Epler" <chris@epler.net> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: i386/122462: Fails to boot from an usb harddrive Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2008 20:18:08 -0400 I too am experiencing this on a SuperMicro server chassis using IPMI to remotely mount an ISO image (The IPMI interface uses USB to interface for drive mounts, keyboard and mouse) I found that using a FreeBSD-8 boot only CD worked however: 8.0-CURRENT-200803-i386-bootonly.iso - I found this while searching Google, not sure the exact location. Booting that CD then changing the distribution to install FreeBSD7-Release allowed me to install properly. I hope this gets addressed soon!
