Can you try the latest FreeBSD iso installation CD (seems it's a BETA-3 now)? Not for a production use but at least to test. I have tried both the 6.1 release and the 6.2 BETA3. Both get the same errors. I have not used any hard drive check utilities on the drive but I did put the hard drive with the same SATA cable attached to it in a computer with an ICH6 controller and 6.1 installed just fine. Then after booting up and making sure everything worked I moved the hard drive back to the computer with the ICH7 controller and I got the same errors during boot and boot failed. Any ideas?
