My SCSI controller is an Adaptec AHA1510 which has the AIC-6260 chipset. After setting up the file system with fdisk and diskedit and then (P)roceeding, I get this error message(this occurs when the progress indicator says 'unzipping /stand/sysinstall onto hard disk'): panic: getnewbuf: inconsistent EMPTY queue syncing disks.... 25 25 25 25 25 25 25 25 ... giving up rebooting After this the system reboots, and unfortunately I have not been able to get any further into the installation process. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Trey
