If this works with 8-stable, where can I download an ISO = Image? Unfortunately the latest official snapshots were before the driver was = merged. You could try first just to boot on the curent / FreeBSD 9 = snapshots and see if it sees your disks at all. You can get the snapshot from = ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/201102/ . I don't think there are any other snapshot services still running... so = (assuming mps(4) actually works with H200) you need to make a build of = stable/8 yourself - the simplest approach is probably to PXE boot the = servers and install by hand... but that's of course not a trivial thing = if you never tried it before. I suspect there will be new official snapshots at some point, but I = don't know when... --=20 Simon L. B. Nielsen
