I couldn't find any answer to the question.The problem is that the installer shows up all the disks instead of proposing to install somewhere on the RAID5 partition, in other words, it just doesn't recognize the RAID5. Is it possible at all to install freeBSD on one of those RAID?? I've found out that this is also a problem with the few linux distros I've tried. I've heard it was possible now but I'm a little bit surprised by the slow adoption I must say. I've been using those Intel RAID with Windows for a couple of years now and it really helped solve my backup problem. I think this is simply great, no worries of data loss anymore (at least coming from hardware failure). -nodje
