I know it is now supported by FreeBsd 4.2. However, i happen to be a newbie with FreeBSD and i can't get the RAID working on my PowerEdge, when i enable RAID in the bios, FreeBSD does'nt see the disks but if i enable only SCSI, it work. anyone know what i am talking about?? I found this in the mailing list: hi, there!
