Hello,

does anyone have some experience with FreeBSD system built around Tyan motherboards?

I would like to build a server station with Tyan Thunder i7500 Pro (S2721)
and i am afraid that those integrated network (82546EB a 82551QM) and scsi (AIC-7902W) things might
cause some trouble to be detected and installed properly. 

I aim for DB and aplication server with two Intel Xeon processors,
SCSI RAID (ZCR add-on card), ide non-RAID + some AIT;
FreeBSD version most probably 5.0.

I will be very grateful for any informations.

I have also spotted out one alternative  - MSI E7500 Mater-LS MS-9101.
Any information about this one will be greatly appreciated also.

Thanks in advance to everyone who offers help.

Regards


 Robert Kania
