Hi, 

I just got a new server with a SuperMicro X6DH8-G motherboard. it's
basically a dual xeon board with 2  3Ware controllers in it.

The Controllers: 
8006-2LP
8506-4LP

A couple of days ago I installed 4.10 on old Dell 300S PowerEdge
server, with the same 3ware controllers and the installation went
flawlessly. However on this machine FreeBSD doesn't can't seem to
autodetect the controllers.

I'm thinking that 4.10 doesn't have support for the motherboards, but
I'm not entirely sure. Has anybody else experienced the same thing, or
have any insight into this? Does this require some kernel tweaks of
the installation CD?

Thanks. 
Ben
