Between 5.2.1 and 5.3-RC2 the rasr device was removed: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/...May/023064.html In FreeBSD 5.2.1 it use to be that using the compat4x port and creating a symlink of /dev/rasr0 to /dev/rdpti17 would be enough to allow Adaptec's RAID management binaries work. However, that trick no longer appears to be working. When you run Adaptec's raidutil (either from the port or from the Adaptec package itself) the symlink disappears and raidutil returns an error stating that it couldn't connect to /dev/rdptr17. Any ideas on why the symlink disappears or another way to get the old Adaptec binaries to work under FreeBSD 5.3 short of rewriting asr.c to include a device alias?
