You seemed to say that your hard disks are not discovered in another email (I didn't see it but saw a reply to it). Could you describe the machine ? Does it have a some hot-plug backplane, for example ? What FreeBSD version ? About trying to install the system using an Adaptec, why not ? (Btw, it also happen that using a Symbios device sometimes cures a failing system that used an Adaptec controller). G=E9rard.
