Hi,

I'm trying to install a 5.2 system and have had a lot of trouble:

 - The disk images won't boot on my Adaptec 2940UW controller with the 
   latest Firmware.
   I have to make an image by myself with mkisofs and cdrecord. After 
   this all boots well.

 - My installation isn't runable, cause the kernel don't find the rootfs
   - Disk configuration:
     - ad0 (s1: FreeBSD-4.0)
     - da0 (s1: FAT32, W98)
     - da1 (s1: FBSD-5.2)
     - da2 (s1: FAT32)

   I install on da1 without any problems. After the reboot all the 
   disks are found by GEOM.

   However the kernel only finds da0s1a .... da1 .... ad0s1a as a 
   rootfs, da1s1a is missing.

   The disk numeration is the same as during the install.

Cause I have no access to ufs2 I'm not able to have a look into it from 
the running 4.9 system. The disklabel seems to bo o.k.:


root_at_odie:~/
142646 : disklabel da1s1
# /dev/da1s1c:

  f: 10403219  7364608    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28552   # (Cyl.  458*- 1105*)
super block size 0

Any ideas?

Best regards
