I'm trying to install a new server which has a hardware RAID controller. All I need is a simple working RAID5 setup and this is my first time doing it in FreeBSD. I noticed that /sbin/sysinstall does not support configuring the drives through (g)vinum* therefore, I have to normally partition the "slices" then configure vinum, is that the correct or proper way of having RAID5 configured on the server? I would really appreciate any feedback, links or hints on this as all the documentation I have gone through looks very old, some are from 1997, 2001 and 2003 and some are talking about FreeBSD 4.4..
