Actually, I also thought that V445 would work without problems as FreeBSD supports V125 and V245 as well as you. I have other choices but I believe it is best to use ZFS on FreeBSD to make effective use of the eight disks of V445. This problem is more troublesome as I think it is much more difficult than when I did send PR about Ultra 30(218478). I will try a little more hints for solution. --- Yoshihiko Iwama -----Original Message----- From: Mark Linimon Sent: Friday, May 4, 2018 10:20 PM To: iwama@t3.rim.or.jp Cc: freebsd-sparc64@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Fire V445 support status All that I can offer is that I have run 10.3 and 11.0 on V215s and V245s. I had assumed that they were similar. Although a few developers do work on sparc64, unfortunately there is little support for it in general in the FreeBSD developer community. I used to do package builds but have not during this year so far. I am afraid we are in a shrinking minority. mcl
