What version of FreeBSD are you using? You need rev 1.57.2.11 of src/sys/i386/isa/pcibus.c to see all the pci buses on the DL580G2. revision 1.57.2.11 date: 2002/11/13 21:40:40; author: peter; state: Exp; lines: +5 -0 Insta-MFC: (i386/pci/pci_bus.c rev 1.96) recognize the serverworks CIOB30 host-PCI bridge. This device is on production servers in the wild. It's just another serverworks chip that the API is compatable enough for us. To get the machine to boot in SMP, you'll need to be running a fairly recent (as of Jan 30, 2003) RELENG_4.
