Thanks!

I have a CD on it now, I'll add an IDE drive and make the CD secondary? Are you using a boot manager then?

Subject: RAID mirror, 6.1 won't boot





I've got a brand new PC, ASUS P5LD2 motherboard and an Intel P4 3.2 CPU. I've installed the i386 version of 6.1 over a dozen times using different geometries and different drives and such, I get mixed results, but it won't boot. I'm running a RAID mirror on 2 SATA drives. If I have the mirror turned on and the second hard drive installed I get "no boot device available" or I get a boot prompt complaining that it can't find /boot/loader. Right now I just get a "-" that blinks, but no boot and no system message that it can't find a boot device and no BSD boot prompt. If I remove the second drive the system boots normally! If I put it back in it won't boot! BSD sees the RAID controller. Is there any easy way to fix this? It seems like it's really close to working and I really want the redundancy.....
