Hi, I face to a choice - Areca ARC-1110 vs. 3ware 9550SX-4LP. Whether soon there will be an amendment to the arc driver? BR, GReenX. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: GIANT in arcmsr(4)
Dear BR, GReenX., I have this last driver on my lab for areca testing procedure. I promised that the driver sould passed testing on Power Mac and SPARC machine. But I can not install FreeBSD 6.0 on my Power Mac G5 system till now. Its coding style not yet all change into unix style. This code had ran more a week of my testing script. You can use it till my final release code for FreeBSD org.

Re: GIANT in arcmsr(4)
Dear Nikolas Britton, Thanks for your comment about UNIX format with arcmsr. I will change its coding style at 1.20.00.13. Generally, areca put its release driver on its ftp site ftp://ftp.areca.com.tw . But this site maintained by areca support team. And the driver always need passed their long term testing procedure but not last new pack. If I modify it and done a testing procedure by me. I will send it to you all.
