Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, My apologies in advance if I've chosen the wrong mailing list. I've checked the FreeBSD Disk Controller list and it lists the Adaptec AIC7850 as supported. Is the AIC7880 also supported? I have a 4.3gb UW scsi drive with NT (preinstalled) on the first 2gb partition and want to install 2.2.6 on the remaining portion of the drive. On my first attempt I split the remaining sectors into a 1gb and a 1.3gb partition and successfully installed Freebsd on the first, but when I try to put filesystems on the 1.3gb partition, filesystems on the 1gb partition get wiped out, almost as if the newfs writes were going to random sectors. More info: I know that comparing NT and FreeBSD filesystems is comparing apples and oranges, but I was able to format the remaining 2.3gb as an NT filesystem, so I'm guessing it's not hardware. Suggestions, pointers and warnings are appreciated. Thanks. Craig Miller To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
