> - Second integrated NIC: Marvell Yukon EC88E8050 - nothing about this <..> we're using the same driver (from marvell directly) under 6.1-RC2 and it works smoothly. you only have to cp if_myk.ko to your kernel dir, and load it with loader.conf or later on with kldload... (we have an intel SE7320VP2D2 board, should be exactly the same chipset from marvell). take care for the following issue: intel has some ipmi-remote-lan-console stuff, which configures an ip address and sends arp-requests if you activate it or not. there are non-public ipmi-tools available from intel support, if you encounter such behaviour. - Intel ICH5R SATA controller. Also not explicitly noted in hardware notes, at least not in 'Disk controllers' section. Couldn't find anything definitive by googling. I'm not interested in possible RAID features, would it work if I just connected a single SATA disk to this controller? it's not really supported, but you can use atacontrol to write good metadata (again, thx 2 soren ;-)) and get this thing running (sw-raid). we have an ICH6R inside of a hp dl320 g4, works well, except pulling hdd's and replacing them while being up, will render the new disk unknown until a reboot has occurred (raid sync has to be done manually, but works). our board works fine (except a current issue with a malloc-panic, but i'm sure that's an issue of configuration, not supported hardware ;-)
