On the controller there it says that it supports freebsd 6.1. And yes there is documentation on how to install freebsd 6.1 on the raid. But for now i have installed freebsd on a RAID1 system, and i have problem getting the card detcted, i run a 5TB RAID 6 on this card. Didn't thought that it could be that much differens between version 6.1 and 6.2. Gonna try to reinstall. After the reinstall i got the card up and running. I see it get detected and it all looks ok. I go in and do a fdisk on the drive and label/mount it. I do all this in sysinstall. I can see that the drive is 4648GB so it all looks ok with the RAID 6 Drive= . When i later quit sysinstall and check the mounts i see that the drive spac= e is 532GB and available space is 500GB. This looks totally wrong. Is there any limitations that im not aware of? /Goran On Dec 13, 2007 1:10 AM, Erik Trulsson <ertr1013@student.uu.se> wrote: > On Wed, Dec 12, 2007 at 09:35:09PM +0100, G=F6ran Nilsson wrote: > > Hi, > > I have a problem getting my EX12350 Radicontroller to work under FreeBS= D > 6.2. > > When i start the computer or rund a dmesg i can see that > > "mass storage raid ..no driver attached" > > For what i can see this card should be supported under FreeBSD 6.1, but > > could it be soo that the support is missing in 6.2?
