I want to install FreeBSD 5.1 but it doesn't work with the controller. 5.1 crashes in sysinstall, when probing for devices. I don't know exactly why, but this happens even if the controller is out of the computer. maybe because it doesn't find any hdd ? ok, I got then 5.2RC2 boot floppies, and this doesn't crash, but still it doesn't identify the raid controller, it see 2 hdd. I installed the base system on one of them, and unfortunatly I cannot boot it. Please help me with any suggestion. I don't really care about the hardware raid, I only wish that i could install and boot from one of the drives. Will JBOD mode help me in any way ? I am waiting for any suggestions... If I can't solve this problem, I will be forced to use linux, or I will leave another person taking care of the server, by installing windows :( Thank you very much.
