Hi,
4.5 snapshot  also failed to recognize ServeRaid on IBM 3550.

I also tried to boot 4.4 -current with my custom kernel ( with aac and scsi at
aac enabled) but it failed too.
At boot, I typed /raidbsd ( name of the file I created ) but it failed.

I think I should read more about booting my custom kernel at installation
process.

Thanks

You can find all (most) you need to know concerning your situation in
the FAQ on the OpenBSD website.

More to the point of your email:
- All that wont help you get 4.4 running on the ServRaid controller.
- The code for that is not in 4.4.
- You could backport the driver to the 4.4 code, but then it isn't 4.4
  anymore and you are on your own with/after that.
- You can not run a 4.5 or -current kernel on a 4.4 userland.

If you want to run OpenBSD on the 3550 using the ServRaid you have to
use -current, atm. Easiest way is to try a snapshot.

But you were told all that before? So sorry if it was unnessasary to
point it out again.
