I was merely trying to be helpful and give pointers to people and places with better information ;-) Is it really not possible to run the application on 6.3? We have been running 6-STABLE on some IBM-blades for months (because of the MPT-raid - I don't remember if the NICs were also an issue). I think we actually do have some of the newer HP blades for evaluation here, but we have not tried to boot FreeBSD on them - mostly for lack of time. cheers, Rainer -- Rainer Duffner CISSP, LPI, MCSE rainer@ultra-secure.de
