The server board is an Intel SE7230NH1-E with a P4-D 2.8GHz, 2GB RAM. When I set up a RAID5 with 7 750GB drives I get nothing but wierdness. Using sysinstall -> Configure -> Fdisk I can see the full size:DISK Geometry: 547149 cyls/255 heads/63 sectors = 8789948685 sectors (4291967MB)But Label sees: Disk: da0 Partition name: da0s1 Free: 200014030 blocks (97663MB)What am I doing wrong? All of the drivers seem to installed; at least they say they are.Is this just too big for FreeBSD? I hope not!I think there are some patches to fix sysinstall, but it still tops out at 2TB I thought. cc'ing some folks who probably know better than I.
