Dear all

It was recommended that I write in this list rather than in the usual 
freebsd newgroup.

With RELENG_5 (as of last Monday, that's 5.3-BETA4)

On our Opteron 2.4Ghz with 3ware 9500-8S card on a Tyan K8S-Pro board.

I've been trying to get the 3ware card to work with FreeBSD in native 
amd64 mode without much success.
It works perfectly with i386 target.

If I boot the amd64 FreeBSD 5.3-BETA4, the card is recognize but the 
system will hang just after the disk has been mounted.

it will lock shortly after there.

Note that it works perfectly with i386 architecture.

I see in the CVS log that in version 1.7.2 of the 3ware driver that it 
is supposed to work with amd64 machines, unfortunately, it doesn't 
appear to be the case.

Any news, ideas? Have I missed something?

Regards
Jean-Yves
