G'day, has anyone out there installed FreeBSD2.7 on a DPT raidstation3? 
I have tried several times to install 2.7 on a DPT raidstation, but I get a 
drive failure (different drives) about a minute after I get the message about 
creating the root filesystem. If the offending drive is removed and reinstalled 
it gets rebuilt, and the diagnostic option on the Storagemanager can find no 
problems with the drive. The controller is recognised on bootup, and the raid
appears as a 9Gb or 18Gb drive (depending on raid level).

The raid consists of 3 9Gb IBM ultra wide HDs, housed in a DLT raidstation3 and
connected to a DPT PM2144UW (SmartCacheIV) controller.

Any ideas?
