Here below ismy data center message I got after they tried to instal freebsd on my server, regards, Miss Riverso Unfortunately it appears that FreeBSD is unable to "see" your raid card or the drives attached to it. I am able to setup the raid 10 array but once the FreeBSD installer starts, the drives are not visible. I have looked for any drivers that may be available for FreeBSD and I am unable to locate them. At this point we can either reinstall the machine with a different OS or provide you with a kvm
