The server has on-board IBM Serverraid II raid controller, which uses the AIC-7880P adaptec chipset. I see that freebsd supports the 7895 chipset, and the two are very similar (the 7895 supports ultra2wide scsi, the 7880 only wide scsi). I am wondering if the 7880P will be detected during the install, or generally if this chipset will work under FreeBSD. IBM tells me it works under SCO (all flavours), NT and Netware. Any help you could give me would be great. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
