The MB does not support PCI-X, but is backwards compatible to a standard PCI slot. On recommendations I have limited the throughput on the channels to 160mb. If you think any other pieces relevant let me know. I think this is probably just an issue with my not knowing wtf I'm doing, but to be optimistic lets assume the ahd module worked as there are no errors in dmesg; which device do I install to? I can not see see ahd0 in fdisk. There are alot of posts over the years reporting trouble with the Dell(Adaptec/Seagate) combiniation. The funny thing is that I am having none of these troubles; There are no panics, no dumps and no lengthy pauses. It all seems fine, until I try to select the disk to install to and I only have da0 or da1. Thanks for your time //
