Can anyone verify if they have freebsd 6 running on any of the following or similar? I'm guessing the issues would be with things like SERIAL ATA - INTEGRATED, RAID 0 & 1 ONBOARD type controllers and the like if any. Any success with xSeries x100, x206m, x226, x306M? If someone gives me a green light for these or any other similar ibms, that would be great. Many thanks Gary
