I haven't seen a verbose dmesg output booting from a non-RAID hard drive.
I have 7.4-STABLE working on several multi-CPU Opteron systems, but they are all Tyan motherboards. Are Rioworks/Arima still in business?
Rather than use the on-board controllers I've just bought some of the LSI 300-8X PCI-X RAID controllers which are cheap and work very well with SATA 2 drives (and FreeBSD). The Adaptec 2610 series are even cheaper, but they
are only SATA 1. Mike Squires Tyan S2885 Tyan S4881 _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
