In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have 2 maxtor 40GB's running off a Promise FastTrak 66 under 4.0-stable, and it's working fine, except for one teensy problem. vinum (striping them), apparently overwrote whatever the promise uses to track them as part of a stripe set... So on reboot, I have to hit an F2 configure, because the promise thinks the array is unconfigured... using a normal Promise card EIDE controller would've been fine...
