[pfSense Support] pfSense install problem

[Mark Maddox]

I have an onboard Intel ICH7-M SATA controller with an SATA hard drive and cdrom connected to it.  I am able to use the liveCD to run pfsense but I am unable to install pfsense onto the harddrive.    According to the FreeBSD website ICH7 has been supported since version 6.0 I have tried putting the controller in Legacy Mode and tried turning turned DMA off in on boot.  I have tested both of my SATA ports on the motherboard to make sure they both work with an alternate operating system (Windows) and they both worked.    I have also installed the harddrive in another computer and installed pfsense on it successfully and then (after testing it and booting successfully on that computer) put it in the machine I am having the problems with only to have it start booting and then error out with harddrive errors.   With DMA on and off the first error regarding the harddrive during boot I get is: ad0: FAILURE –READ_DMA48 status=ff<BUSY, READY,DMA_READY,DSC,DRQ,CORRECTABLE,INDEX,ERROR> error=0 LBA=390721967   Does anyone have any ideas? I have been beating on this problem for a couple days now.
