Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
I'd appreciate some help/clues on how to solve the following problem.
I have acquired some 3 old-ish HP Netserver LH4r. They come with
built-in RAID adapters.
I have installed FreeBSD (well, that is the only one I could anyway),
but I am hitting a snag: When I boot up the box, it refuses to automount
the root fs, then takes me to "Manual Root File System specification" option.
When I specify
ufs:/dev/amrd0s1a then the box boots. What I don't understand is why it
is refusing to obey the same thing in fstab..
My /etc/fstab contains the correct entries - /dev/amrd0s1{a|e|f} and I
have even compiled a kernel with support for "amr".
I have three such boxes (God forbid if they all refuse to run FreeBSD).
Here is a dmesg output of what I am going through:
