Once all done and you can see linux binaries, go to the Port:

Thanks so much! I had been using the aaccli from the Adaptec CD, which
does need the AAC_COMPAT_LINUX option and wasn't aware of the port. It
works great.


I am not using the port but a download from the Adaptec website.  I  
do not have any AAC_COMPAT_LINUX.  Works just fine for me.


The port does seem to be a Linux one now -- it used to be a FreeBSD  
native one that was not the equal of the Linux one in terms of  
functionality and that had been basically abandoned, according to  
what I remember Scott Long saying.

You don't need the AAC_COMPAT_LINUX option enabled. Do you have  
linux binaries installed ? run kldstat  to check you should see  
linux.ko


In my 5.4 systems I don't have AAC_COMPAT_LINUX configured and I run  
the Adaptec Linux version of aaccli just fine.  Check the archives,  
this was discussed back in the 5.3/5.4 release timeframe if I  
remember correctly -- I had the same or similar questions at the time.




If not installed, check this:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/linuxemu-lbc-install.html

Once all done and you can see linux binaries, go to the Port:

/usr/ports/sysutil/aaccli


You can also run the version from adaptec's website

Chad




make install distclean


This will install aaccli, or you can just copy the file aaccli from  
the "files" folder and put it in /usr/bin which will also work.


Note, If you have upgraded your RAID card to the latest Adaptec  
firmware (like I did) aaccli will not work. I think Adaptec is  
working on a new utility for FreeBSD, but so far it is no go.


Good luck,

Tamouh
