So yes it's working. I just install the server. But...the documentation inside the archive s*cks..... If you follow the doc with a standard memstick img it's not working because the mrsas driver is include inside the generic kernel. So you either need to build a personnal memstick with the src of the driver from broadcom, or you need to build a personnal memstick without mrsas driver and load the mrsas.so from broadcom. Looking inside the archive it's seem the mrsas driver from broadcom are in src version. Are someone know why they are not include in FreeBSD source ? I didn't see (but I'm not a specialist) anything (licence) against that Thanks for the help -- Albert SHIH DIO bâtiment 15 Observatoire de Paris Heure local/Local time: Mon Mar 19 16:50:55 CET 2018
