If I'm=20 not mistaken, BOTH. 4.1.1 is just a newer release of 4.1. The most = talked=20 about change is the removal of rsaref (RSA) dependancies. You = can read=20 the changes in the RELNOTES.TXT at = ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.1.1.-RELEASE/ = for=20 more info on other changes since the 4.1 release. There's also the 4.1 = directory=20 if you need to back up a little. 3.x is available too, though I'm not = sure of=20 it's support for that chipset. Do some reading and decide what's best = for=20 you.

Dear=20 sir,

Thanks for your=20 quickly reply.

I = have another=20 question. I=20 intend to use SuperMicro's motherboard that had integrated with = Adaptec's=20 AIC-7892 SCSI Controller, But SuperMicro's engineer told me that their = motherboards didn't support FreeBSD because of Adaptec = AIC-7892/AIC-7899=20 SCSI Controller. Could you tell me which's version will support this = SCSI=20 controller? Is it V4.1 or V4.1.1? I am wondering.

Any = help will be=20 appreciated.
