Several people suggested that I try a freebsd boot disk to see if
its current development driver will boot my recalcitrant PowerEdge
2300's and reset their onboard aic7890's to a sane state.
Unfortunately, visiting the freebsd site and looking at the supported
hardware in their downloadable boot floppy image, it doesn't appear that
the 7890 is supported (unless there is a perfectly reasonable lag
between the image being upgraded and the documentation being
upgraded:-).
I have no idea how to go about building a freebsd boot floppy from
current cam/aic7xx sources. Could any freebsd'rs with a current
development image please post a URL? I am curious as to whether or not
it will unstick my stuck devices...
Thanks,
rgb
