hi,
we would like to run the following configuration:
some i386-servers, each connecting to a SAN with a
PCI or PCI-X FC-HBA with boot-ROM showing up as a
SCSI-device for freebsd to use as the root-disk.
does anyone know working HBAs (2Gbit speed) with
rel 5 or 6. best would be support with the default
kernel!
anyone some suggestions/experiences with that?
br...

PS: please, just reply to the list, i'm on it!
