I wanted to thank the folks that replied... Turns out it WAS just a controller problem.... I slapped fbsd on our other 1600 and it worked fine, even after running the smartstart garb. Seems like there is a problem with running the smartstart on some systems. I plan to call compaq to see what happened. I have not tried to run it on my 3000's or 5000. and they use the same controller! -----Original Message----- From: Karl Pielorz <kpielorz@tdx.co.uk> To: Derek Jewett <djewett@snowcrest.net> Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG <questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Date: Saturday, January 16, 1999 4:39 PM Subject: Re: FreeBSD and the Proliant 1600 HELP!!! > > >Greg Lehey wrote: >> >> On Saturday, 16 January 1999 at 16:21:17 -0800, Derek Jewett wrote: >> > Is anyone else running fbsd on a proliant 1600 box..?
