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
