Re: aic7xxx/FreeBSD/Linux can't find disk drives
Thanks again. I've spent the weekend trying to get this thing going... I know both scsi hosts are supported by FreeBSD and Linux, there aren't any IRQ conflicts between the devices Are the disks detected by Adaptec BIOS scan during the system bootup? -- Toomas Aas | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * A woman's husband's previous wife is called her 'wife-in-law.' ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: aic7xxx/FreeBSD/Linux can't find disk drives
Kent, Thanks, still nothing... you're right I forgot to change my email to /dev/da for FreeBSD (/dev/sda is Linux scsi drive) Any other ideas? I thought there might be some IRQ conflicts but there isn't when I look in kernel config before install... These aren't RAID so I thought it'd be a no brainer Thanks, Matt On Jan 11, 2004, at 2:45 AM, Kent Stewart wrote: On Saturday 10 January 2004 09:06 pm, Matt Bjornson wrote: I have a Dell PowerEdge 2400 with dual 733 Mhx CPUs.

These aren't RAID so I thought it'd be a no brainer When you are running sysinstall, the fdisk option has always presented me with the device name of the HDs I had connected to the scsi adapter. It would be something like da0, da1, and etc., which you would create the slices and partitions. I can't help beyond that because I don't have any systems with scsi HDs on them. I could build a system with 2 - ata-133 80GB HDs on it for what a good uw scsi adapter and HD would cost.

Kent, Thanks again. I've spent the weekend trying to get this thing going... I know both scsi hosts are supported by FreeBSD and Linux, there aren't any IRQ conflicts between the devices I am perplexed. thanks again, Matt On Jan 11, 2004, at 12:38 PM, Kent Stewart wrote: On Sunday 11 January 2004 08:29 am, Matt Bjornson wrote: Kent, Thanks, still nothing... you're right I forgot to change my email to /dev/da for FreeBSD (/dev/sda is Linux scsi drive) Any other ideas?
