we have installed the rocket raid 1640 on a dual opteron boxwith a tyan motherboard. the drives work fine and the rocket raid driver on boot confirms that they are set up in raid 5. however when we go to install 4.8 on it - it sees the drives as 3 seperated entities. are we missing a step here? will an upgrade to 5.1 solve this? ---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: RE: opteron freebsd upgrade From: "GNAX ENGINEERING" <engineering_at_gnax.net> Date: Wed, January 14, 2004 2:33 pm To: "jeff hinkle" <jhinkle_at_gnax.net> "GNAX ENGINEERING" <engineering_at_gnax.net> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have it on the bench... not sure about it yet..
