A look at the GENERIC configuration file shows a twe controller for 3Ware raid subsystems. A search of the FreeBSD docs and FAQ didn't offer a lot of help. Google says it should work. Configuration: ATA cdrom on on-board controller 3ware 7000-2 raid card with two drives attached. The install process hangs when booting after the device selection menu. Does anyone have any words of wisdom on how to make this thing work? can I boot from a raid subsystem? hal To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
