Hi Tony,

You are correct. As of now we have only tested the drivers on Server 2012. You 
can get them to work on Server 2008R2 but Server 2008 will have some problems. 
Currently we are focused on getting the drivers functional on Server 2012 for 
FreeBSD 10 and then we may start expanding to past versions of Windows servers 
if there is sufficient demand. Having said that I would be interested in 
hearing more about the panic that you are observing. Is it possible for you to 
share a stack trace?

Please keep me posted on your issues.

Thanks,

Subject: fastide on hyper-v (pre r2)

I am not able to get fastide working on sbs2008 with the pre-r2 version of 
hyper-v. Should this work? Has testing been done on older versions of hyper-v? 
I see there was a commit by grehan 18 hours, 30 minutes ago dealing with the 
cdrom, so I have a new build in process. To be honest I hadn't gotten far 
enough to worry about the cdrom device yet, but it is good to see that is dealt 
with. 

There is an extensive list of things I have tried in the thread
http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?p=236012#post236012
In short, if I leave fastide on, it will panic before it gets to error 19, but 
if I turn it off I can boot to ada0p2, or any label I give the device.
My suspicion is that all of the dev work has been done on hyperv-r2, so there 
may be an oversight.

In any case it is good to see all the progress. I have been running FreeBSD in 
VM's hobbled by the inability to reboot without manual intervention for 4 
years, hoping this would happen. Even without fastide, once 10 goes to RELEASE 
I can move some of the production work off of dedicated hardware.
Tony
