FreeBSD 6.0-BETA5 install disk


>Description:


installer of 6.0-BETA5 can not find HDD partition of 
Sony VAIO Type-S.

1. I can boot VAIO Type-S by using install-CD of 6.0-BETA5.

2. FDISK of the installer can't find HDD partition of VAIO Type-S.
(Error message is "No disks found")

3. However, FreeBSD 5.4R can be installed to the PC.

How can I install 6.0-BETA5 to Sony VAIO Type-S?




>How-To-Repeat:


Every time of using installer of FreeBSD 6.0-BETA5

To submitter: do you still see this problem with more recent versions of 
FreeBSD?  If so, are you able to capture a copy of the bootup messages 
displayed as the laptop boots (perhaps taking pictures of them with a 
digital camera)?  Thanks!
