Trying to install FreeBSD 5.2.1 on a Compaq Proliant 800, looking for someone that has done this or similar. Of course, you have to have the SmartStart CD, I have that, I choose System Erase and it loads the Compaq partition and the FreeBSD goes without error and when I reboot I get 'Invalid partition type', that's it. After System Erase, I set the configuration to Unix (Large Geometry), there are 4 SCSI drives, two 18GB and two 9GB, FreeBSD finds and represents all correctly on install. Seems the Compaq BIOS is just not letting me use those partitions as active?
