Hi, I have a HP DL320 (G5, IIRC - Woodcrest Xeon) with two 80 GB SATA disks that seem to hang on the built-in Intel SATA "F-RAID" (Fake-RAID) Controller (ICH7, MatrixRAID). My question is: how can I install on that RAID? I enabled the Controller in the F9-BIOS, I created a RAID in the F8 RAID-BIOS and it shows up during boot. But when I want to install FreeBSD, it only detects ad4 and ad6 - and upon reboot, the controller doesn't see the RAID anymore, either - it reports the two disks as JBOD. I tried 6.2 and both the latest snapshots from ftp.freebsd.org/snapshots/ for 6-STABLE and CURRENT (for i386). The idea I got from reading the various posting etc. was that the OS should see an "ar0" device and I should be able to see that - but I don't. Can anyone offer some insight? Best Regards, Rainer
