The boot process stops with root device: It is possible to boot through bsd.rd. However, the hard drive is not recognized there. Here is the dmesg from bsd.rd: [snip] Xianwen, Obviously the best thing is for IT to release the BIOS control to you, but if they won't, get a USB SATA disk interface, and try to use that. Your IT department might have figured out how to interfere with that too, but that might be a solution. You'd have to keep that external disk and its interface with you, but at least you could use OpenBSD. --STeve Andre'
