 I have run linux for several years now and have created some fairly large
systems that have been very stable by my standards.  But I have always
wanted to set up a freebsd system and make it a monster too.  Well I finally
am getting my chance,  I got a 9 disk 3u rackmount with an Intel mb that
will hold a pair of piii 1.26mhz processors, with 2GB ram.  I ordered a
3ware 7850 (8 port ata 100) and plan on putting in 8 160GB maxtors (raid 5)
and a 120 GB maxtor on the mb ide interface for the boot disk with a slim cd
and floppy.  Since this is my first freebsd install,  is there anything in
paticular I should look out for?  Also any tips that might make this monster
easier to install easier.  Is there another list that would be more suited
to ask this question.

Wayne
