The installation of FreeBSD was exactly the same as anywhere else :) As it was said here, Momentus' Adaptive Memory technology uses SSD as read cache, that's all. The OS doesn't even guess that these 8GBs of SSD are present somewhere :) -- ~~~ WBR, Vitaliy Turovets Systems Administrator Corebug.Net +38(093)265-70-55 VITU-RIPE X-NCC-RegID: ua.tv
