I am attemping to use a RocketRAID 2224 8 channel card to set up a
storage server.  The server board is an Intel SE7230NH1-E with a P4-D
2.8GHz, 2GB RAM.
When I set up a RAID5 with 7 750GB drives I get nothing but wierdness.
Using sysinstall -> Configure -> Fdisk I can see the full size:
DISK Geometry:  547149 cyls/255 heads/63 sectors = 8789948685 sectors 
(4291967MB)

But Label sees:
Disk: da0       Partition name: da0s1   Free: 200014030 blocks (97663MB)

What am I doing wrong?  All of the drivers seem to installed; at least 
they say they are.
Is this just too big for FreeBSD?  I hope not!

Help!
