[-- Attachment #1 --] Sorry, forgot to mention it is FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE Bob Silva ----- Original Message ----- From: Bob Silva To: bob@bravenet.com Sent: Sunday, October 01, 2000 12:59 PM Subject: Fw: Installing on a Promise Ultra100 card ----- Original Message ----- From: Jonel Rienton To: Bob Silva ; freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sent: Sunday, October 01, 2000 12:55 PM Subject: Re: Installing on a Promise Ultra100 card Bob, which release are you trying to install? Jonel Rienton http://qmail.freebsduser.org sent by qmail-1.03 on a FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE ----- Original Message ----- From: Bob Silva To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sent: Sunday, October 01, 2000 2:39 PM Subject: Installing on a Promise Ultra100 card I just built a new server with 2 drives on a Promise 100 card. It is in PCI slot0 and kernel boot tells me as much. However when I go to install, it doesnt find any drives. But, lsdev sees both drives. Can the default kernel see and use the promise card? Or do I need to move them to regular ide first, install, then build a new kernel that supports the promise. Looking at ata code, it looked like it auto-detected the promise but...not so in this case. Thanks, any help on how I should proceed would be appreciated.
