I did some additional testing:
1) Installed 7.2-RC2 directly on the Perc 4e/Si H435 machine (RAID1)
from a cd, this went fine.
2) Turned off, and placed one drive in the machine with Perc 4e/Si H430,
boot went fine
Checked install of 7.1-RELEASE from cd on the 4e/Si H435 machine,
failed: no harddisk found.

So the problem as I encountered with 7.1-RELEASE-p4 is not present in
7.2-RC2.
There are some messages about GEOM_LABEL and GEOM_LABEL: Label ....
removed,
which I haven't seen before. If they are of any interest let me know.

p.s. I copied the subject from the original thread. I haven't attempt
to install 7.1-RELEASE myself. If it is of any additional value, I can
try to install the 7.1- RELEASE directly to verify if it fails.

The just-released 7.2-RC2 should fix this problem. Please let me
know ASAP if it works for you.

Interestingly enough, FreeBSD booted fine on the machine installed
(updated from 7.0 to 7.1-RELEASE-p4).
This machine is a PowerEdge 1850 bios A04 with Perc 4*e*/Si bios
H430 / fwVer 521S.
When booting a drive from this machine in another PowerEdge 1850,
bios A07 Perc 4e/Si bios H435 FwVer 5B2D
it drops to the mount root prompt...
