Hiho,

I just got an ICP Vortex Raid Controller (GDT6523RS) and took a look
at the CD. WOW! They're delivering a FreeBSD4.x/5.x Kernel Module AND
complete source for statically linking that driver into the kernel.

Mike said sth. about that drivers are going to be implemented into 4.3.
I don't see anything in the release notes. What happend?

Also on that CD is a console utility for configuring controller and
raidsets, really, really exciting.

Worked in my 4.2S testbox without any problems in a (the new) Intel 
SR2100 chassis, fully utilizing the integrated SCA hotswap-controller/
backplane. Errors and status messages are going into syslog, nice
to see that. Someone has really thought about this one...

And - in diffrence to our in-use AMI Megaraid cards, the devices
get "daX"-naming, not that silly amrX.

Just to let you know - and to let Mike know that the driver's out ;)

Cu, Oliver
