Hello!
I am trying to install Dragonfly BSD 2.6.3 on a server with a 3ware 9650SE
2-port S-ATA2 RAID adapter but the installer does not recognize the RAID array.
On the boot prompt I tried to "load twe" as well as "load twa" as well as both,
but in all cases the installer is not able to detect a suitable harddrive device and aborts the
installation..
I have another, older Dragonfly 2.0 system running on an older version of the
3ware adapter 7000/8000 series with the twed driver, and because
shinigsilence.com reported the 9500 series to work on Dragonfly BSD and because
freebsd supports this adapter as well I hoped that it will work in 2.6.3 as
well.
Could somebody take a look why it does not work? If you need any kind of
information, do not hesitate to ask! I will try to provide any kind of
information that will help to make the controller work :-)
Damian,
the kernels used on the ISOs include twa(4) so no additional commands
should be necessary to enable it.
Can you please do a verbose boot (select in the loader menu) of the CD
and put up the /var/run/dmesg.boot somewhere? Also please put up the
output of 'pciconf -lv' on the machine.
Regards,
Sascha
