Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Question: I have an Adaptec AAA-131SA raid adapter. Specific model number (as read from the board) is AAA-131B. I set this card up with the DOS program supplied, and formatted the raid, and everything seemed fine. BUt when i go to install FreeBSD, it skips right past the RAID, and sees the two physical drives. I'm sure i don't need to explain the problem any further. The question is, what is the solution? I banged my head against the wall for several days before i gave up on this, and swapped it for a regular 2940UW (why use the raid card if it's not raiding). Now that i have time to go back to this problem, i'd like to solve it. Can anyone help? SUndie...
