The hpasmcli version still does not work because I haven't recompiled the kernel with NO_KSE to prevent it from faulting on the the pthreads call. Wow. Any chance these will be at least recompiled and republished for 8.0 and -current? Even better, can the source finally be released or published so we can make a port?

I have ran freebsd on boxes (mail server, webserver, proxy server, ftp, etc) but this is the first actual "server" box. Trying to install this on the box with the default geometry makes me receive the "Write failure on transfer (wrote -1 bytes of 1425408 bytes)" error. Alt-f2 is showing /stand/cpio: premature end of file. I have downloaded the image twice and burned twice yet receive the same error. Is it not able to write because when using the default geometry it cannot format? If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Nope, once you setup your disks in the firmware setup, ciss0 should attach to the controller just fine. You can see this by modifying the options in sysinstall and enable the 'emergency holographic shell.' I think that becomes available via ALT-F4. From there you can view 'dmesg' output to which devices were probed and attached successfully on bootup. ciss0: port 0x4000-0x40ff mem 0xfdf00000-0xfdffffff,0xfdef0000-0xfdef0fff irq 32 at device 0.0 on pci70 [...] GEOM: new disk da0da0 at ciss0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 da0: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-5 device da0: Serial Number PAFGCOMPAQ RAID00-0xfff da0: 135.168MB/s transfersode da0: Command Queueing enabled da0: 139979MB (286677120 512 byte sectors: 255H 32S/T 35132C) >> Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2009 07:28:59 -0800 >> From: atkin901@gmail.com >> To: bmsg32@hotmail.com >> CC: freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org >> Subject: Re: Installation Freebsd 7.2 AMD64 on Proliant DL385 G5p >> >> SomeoneHere wrote: >> > I just purchased one of these for our company as our mail server. >> >> I have one of these running freebsd-current currently.
