Re: sil3112 controller
Should there be an option to run atacontrol in sysinstall? So that drives could be assigned to a mirror / stripe set before installing without having to build the mirror on another machine first? (in this case the BIOS does not help) Pete - Original Message - From: Soeren Schmidt [EMAIL PROTECTED] It seems Petri Helenius wrote: Just saw the support for the controller go in. Does the driver support any RAID1 style mirroring? Only our own ATA RAID (see atacontrol).. I do have an Adaptec 1210 that has RAID capabilities and I have deciphered their RAID config info, but support is not finished yet. -Søren ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Most ATA RAID controllers seem to be targeted towards home-user and thus do not support unattended operation. I just can't create the mirror while installing. I just wish there would either be more functionality in the twe driver or somebody would come out with 8-12 port SATA controller. Looking at the issues for example the Adaptec SCSI RAIDs have, it seems SATA will take them over quite quickly.

sil3112 controller
Just saw the support for the controller go in. Does the driver support any RAID1 style mirroring? Pete ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
