Some more info:

when I run atacontrol info, it appears that the disk is not attached. I have booted to Linux and Windows installer and they both see the disk. I believe that the SATA drive should be on ATA channel 2. (According to th e boot messages, which show the ICH7 SATA Controller being detected with 4 channels, 2-5)

# atacontrol list
ATA channel 0:
    Master: acd0 <HL-DT-ST GCR-8240N/1.06> ATA/ATAPI revision 4
    Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 1:
    Master:      no device present
    Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 2:
    Master:      no device present
    Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 3:
    Master:      no device present
    Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 4:
    Master:      no device present
    Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 5:
    Master:      no device present
    Slave:       no device present

  CTRL-C a number of times to break back to the shell and then SCP
then files somewhere.

I should also note that it has a single SATA drive on the first SATA
connection.  I get the same issue with both of the two identical systems.

What version?

I'm having trouble installing pfSense to my new Dell PE 850.

The installer doesn't find a disk.  If I do an lsdev before booting, I
see the disk and partitions.  The system has a ICH7 chipset, which
appears to be problematic at this point in time.  Does anyone have any
idea how I could get this installed?  Is there a way to easily update
the kernel in the installer?  Would that even help?

Thanks.
