FreeBSD 8.1 and PowerEdge 2970

I have installed FreeBSD 8.1 on a new PowerEdge 2970.

I am getting the following errors:

Code:

The cd is on ata3. Is this a hardware problem, or a driver problem for PowerEdge 2970s?

Anyone else seeing this?

Thanks
 
Hello,

I have no experience on PowerEdges :(

Can this be caused by BIOS settings?

You stated this problem comes if you are using ata3. Did you try another port.
Could it be this is caused because ata3 is connected in a different way. Not connected to the chipset itself but on a additional interfacechip; or so?
