The problems are: * On xSeries305, I can install the FreeBSD and configure the ethernet port, but the network is impossible (only can ping 127.0.0.1) and ifconfig tells me "no carrier" (I am sure the network cable is ok and the network port green light is on). * On xSeries345, ServeRAID-5i Ultra320 SCSI controller is installed (with RAID5 enabled), when processing the installation, FreeBSD cannot detect any hard disk. Anybody can help me to sort out these two issues? Thanks & Regards, Zhong Lun
