Thanks Veronica!!

And where can I find the hardware compatibility list, please? I haven't checked since I don't know where to look for it.

The only thing I have is : http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/6-STABLE/hardware/amd64/index.html ... but it doesn't name any specific motherboards... and the "supported device" page doesn't even mention "radeon"... so I'm thinking this may not be the complete list. Or FreeBDS is not supporting modern enough hardware for me (though that ST20G5 is starting to be a good year old).

Hi!

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 6.2 on my Shuttle ST20G5 with one DVD
drive (off of which the FreeBSD 6.2 AMD boot CD boots perfectly)... I
am asked for default or "no ACPI" (tried both - even tried with the
normal i386 boot CD), then prompted for region and keyboard language.
Then I go to where I should select partitionning for my hard disk...
but the system says "no disk found".

Strange thing since, if I don't boot from the CD, the machine boots
from the hard disk (which contains a Ubuntu system) perfectly...

The machine is a Shuttle ST20G5 (
http://global.shuttle.com/Product/Barebone/ST20G5.asp). Chipset is ATi
RADEON XPRESS 200 + ULi 1573 chipset...

Any suggestions?

PS... This is my first attempt at FreeBSD... comming from NetBSD (on
another server) and Ubuntu (on my laptops). I'd love to make this a
great experience!

Thanks in advance,
Gilles.


Have you checked the HCL (Hardware Compatibility List) if your SATA
controller is supported?
