Same issue in all cases. It gives the error shortly after it starts to copy files to the stripped drives. It is almost as if the installation decides to look at the 3.5" disk drive to copy the raid driver files to the drive and then decides that they are no good, even though the system is successfully using them at

Personally, I'd prefer to install from scratch and choose the Standard hal during installation. However, I've heard that you can change hal post-installation, although I've never done it. But if you reinstall W2000, you just hit F5 when it prompts you to use F6 for RAID drivers. You can then choose the Standard hal

The 'server grade' SATA drives appeared during the last years (like WD's 'RAID Edition'); before that, IDE/SATA was just plain 'consumer grade' stuff. I tested it with stock vr driver in both 6 and 7 stable on both i386 and amd64, and now with overhauled vr in 8 freshly cvsupped and two files replaced on i386.

freebsd-current Digest, Vol 231, Issue 8
Hi Alan Let us know if that is the issue... the choice between RAID and Non-RAID will be dependent on how the mainboard manufacturer has implemented SATA on their board - some use the RAID SATA driver in both instances. Basically you should be given the option during XP installation *if* the mainboard supports it.
