Just been trying to install FreeBSD 5.4 amd64 here and when loading the raid control kernel module driver ( hptmv ) from floppy and booting I was getting: Panic isadma_start : bad bounce buffer
The driver install docs stated to disable ACPI it this happened this prevented the cards from being detected. Anyway I found a workaround which is interesting. After loading the module from floppy I unplugged the floppy drive this seems to fix the issue, no panic and the controllers detected find ( installing as we speak ) so is there a problem with floppy access in amd64 5.4?
