I'll double check that the Mylex card sees it as such. > I just got off the phone with someone from Mylex tech support - the BIOs on the newer cards, like mine, supposedly won't show any backplane devices in the scan. I had to sit and listen to a 5 minute lecture from the tech on how the Linux driver spits out all of the attached devices on boot up. 'camcontrol' just shows me the RAID virtual disk, not the backplane or the drives. So, any way to scan the bus in FreeBSD and list all the attached devices ? --Craig To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
