Hi,

i had equal problems aftre running DragonFly Release 1.2.
i think this come (may be) from bad hardware-acpi-implementations.
but i was not an specialist...nor an dragonfly programmer (only a user)

after a reboot my third disk was not found, if i made an
hard-reset or power-off/on so it was all normally.

greetings

michael
