>Environment:
Toshiba Satellite Laptop model#S255-2435
Intel Pentium 4, 2.4 Ghz Microprocessor
512MB RAM
40 GB HD

Multiply partitioned hard drive:
Primary partition 1: 10000MB NetBSD partition (NetBSD installed)
Primary partition 2: 1024MB Linux Swap
Primary partition 3: 16000MB Linux partition (Gentoo installed)
Primary partition 4: <empty> (intended destination for FreeBSD 5.2)
Grub used as bootloader

>Description:
Transcribed boot messages (shorthand utilized):
..
GEOM: Configure ad0s1, start ...
..
GEOM: Configure ad0s4, start ...
(probe 0: sbp 0:0:0:0): error 22
(probe 0: sbp 0:0:0:0): unretryable error
..
(probe 6: sbp 0:0:6:0): error 22
(probe 6: sbp 0:0:6:0): unretryable error
mounting root from ufs: /dev/md0
start_init: trying /sbin/init
..
start_init: trying /stand/sysinstall
<cursor> (everything stops here with no further messages)

IMPACT: FreeBSD5.2RC2 essentially uninstallable using the CD under the aforementioned environment.  This problem exists for FreeBSD 5.1 Release CD as well (boot messages may vary).
>How-To-Repeat:
Obtain and verify good a FreeBSD 5.2RC2 CD.  Replicate environment (unsure if partitioning scheme is relevant).  Attempt to install FreeBSD 5.2RC2.

 Can you please attach a full boot log?  Use a serial console and boot
 by canceling out of the bootloader menu and typing 'boot -dHv'.
 
 Thanks!

 This problem exists for FreeBSD 5.2 Release also. While booting with 
 verbose output (boot -dHv), there are no error messages.  Booting 
 process simply halts at:
 
 mounting root from ufs: /dev/md0
 
 Workaround for the problem:
 1. Exit boot loader menu
 2. disable-module md
 3. boot

 The workaround above does not work!  I attributed my success to 
 disabling the module 'md', but the success actually occured because I 
 removed my wireless pcmcia network card (model#WPC11 version 3) prior to 
 booting the FreeBSD CD.

 Please close this PR.  It has been fixed with the new
 5.2.1 Release.
 
 Thank you.
