Re: PCIe NIC for FreeBSD 5.5
Olivier Nicole wrote: Hi, I have been askedto install FreeBSD on a server, but I had no saying on the procurement of the server. It ends up to be an HP 380G5, with onboard Broadcom based NIC that is not supported and only PCIe extension slots. I am wondering what NIC I could buy that would be PCIe, x4 or x8, and supported by FreeBSD 5.5. Best regards, Your NIC is most likely supported by FreeBSD 6.2.

RE: Q: FreeBSD 4.6.* on Intel D845EBT MB (Promise PDC2067 IDE RAID)
I have several FreeBSD machines with onboard Promise and HighPoint ATA RAID controllers, and they all work perfectly. You should be OK with the Intel MB. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Christopher Schulte Sent: Friday, December 06, 2002 12:41 PM To: Andrew Stesin; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Q: FreeBSD 4.6.* on Intel D845EBT MB (Promise PDC2067 IDE RAID) At 05:36 PM 9/14/2002 +0300, Andrew Stesin wrote: Hello people, Anyone tried FreeBSD 4.6.* on Intel D845EBT motherboard? Especially interesting is how an onboard Promise PDC2067 IDE RAID controller works with FreeBSD - or better to say, does it work at all? What are the caveates with it, if any? How RAID configuration works? I had the same question (on 4.7) regarding the pdc20267. There were no formal replies, so I asked Andrew privately. His response is below, printed with permission, in case others search the archives for this answer: Thanks Andrew. --reply start-- Hi Christopher, I got a bunch of replies via private email (people think that it's so obvious that doesn't worth any further public discussion). Everyone says that yes it works perfectly. Unfortunately, I personally wasn't able to test this, because my plans to buy this exact board changed with an appearance of new 845 chipset (533 MHz FSB, DDR 333 etc.) and I got a modern one without RAID (now I'm a happy user of vinum (1)).
