There's work in progress to get the new 6gbps LSI HBAs and RAID controllers= =20 working in FreeBSD, but so far the driver is pretty experimental. Currentl= y=20 there's nothing in the tree, but hopefully soon there will be something rea= dy=20 for testing. As far as what you are seeing on boot, the system BIOS is seeing the=20 controller and disks, but FreeBSD doesn't have a driver so once the OS is=20 charge you get the no disks found message. =2D-=20 Thanks, Josh Paetzel =46reeBSD -- The power to serve --nextPart1610633.ag4YqNX1tL Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.16 (FreeBSD) iQEcBAABAgAGBQJMUvFGAAoJEKFq1/n1feG2VW8H/iUl36rhDSfJuEarmmmQpNw2 W1ym0tlV1a3tntwHQEV4fJAfjKuMSko0TYLEEXfw1oR50JvawVD5xPrWNO+A22Lj p9RmBhFWpRZKdOsp50Zfbfg4CFnHRs0bTd1lWTKDSHd7FgDwJY1VtY+HIVeBCNnV o15ySsZOjBXAJYr3bbBNTw2BYewLrxwMMWkpdFdq47yevUGmTsagbBV8wugl06Ke etEUpn/fHZUnWdkesmWkHtWnCdR9E3MeXc0LnOYXWj4GOEeqGzZIk3Wx4q0x2Bdw OXW1sywi/gJJ0VDEm4okKkYRUjdSx1/sUx+u9HFghY/llj+Dj/4bcJ5BvUJOqwI= =iaVF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1610633.ag4YqNX1tL--
