Morning All,

Is anyone running 5-stable on a Dell 1855 Blade Server?

We're looking at a couple of enclosures to replace a heap of Dell 
4300/6300s that have been running FreeBSD 4 without any problems over 
the past few years.

I'm interested in SMP war stories, PERC4/IM support (The mpt driver 
hopefully will work with them) and general impressions.


Thanks,


Carl.
