I have not used RAID before.
I have a laptop (new to me) with windows 7 and RAID0.
I want to install 8.2-Release and retain the Raid0.
I booted the 8.2-Release AMD64 DVD and exited to Fixit.

Hi all,
My FreeBSD8.2-amd64 installation keeps crashing - power off in a flash
with no warning. I can't imagine what might be the problem. I ran
memtest86+ and it cleared Pass 1 with no errors. Win XP runs without
any problems. I have pasted below XP Device Manager's syst
e-iso.html
The installation works fine (my desktop pc, FreeBSD 8.1, AMD64) and I am able
to use all tex features (pdflatex, ...)

which seems kind of hackish, and it doesn't solve the OP's problem
of not being able to build teTeX on 8.2 amd64 (unless there's a
prior amd64 package to fall back o
