Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I'm going to install a new FreeBSD server and I'm looking into an Ultra-ATA 100 RAID solution. So far, my searches on Dejanews seem to indicate that there are some problems with either installing FreeBSD, or booting FreeBSD from a RAID volume. I would like to configure two hard drives in a mirror (RAID1) config, and install and run the latest FreeBSD-STABLE on it. I'm considering either the Abit Hot Rod 100 or the Promise Fasttrack 100 RAID PCI cards. Does anyone have experience with either of those?
