I'm trying to convert a machine to FreeBSD.  It has been running BSDI 2.1 
for quite a while.  2.1 installs (more or less), but both the 2.1.5 and 
the latest 2.2-SNAP boot floppies hang after trying to launch 
sysinstall.  The machine has a Buslogic 946C SCSI controller (PCI) and a 
PCI video card.  Sysinstall comes up if I remove the controller.  Anyone 
run into this before?  I've tried moving the PCI cards around to 
different slots but no luck...
