After the driver has been loaded, remove the floppy diskette from the floppy drive.
Type in “boot” and continue with installation as normal. Refer to FreeBSD installation
guide for additional information.
ok boot
Note: On some systems, when ACPI is enabled, FreeBSD may not function
properly. Try disabling ACPI in the motherboard’s BIOS settings, or type the
command “set hint.acpi.0.disabled=”1”” under the boot prompt, in order to
solve the problem.
Before exiting installation, an additional step must be taken to copy the RocketRAID
2310 driver module to the system. On the driver diskette, there is a setup script labeled
“postinstall”, which will complete this task. Before rebooting the system, press Alt-F4
to enter the command shell, and type the following commands:
# mount –o ro /dev/fd0 /mnt
# sh /mnt/postinstall
# umount /mnt
Then, press Alt-F1 to return to the setup screen, and choose [X Exit
Install] to finish setup.
