The FreeBSD mfi will not support that card. The LSI mfi will, but they aren't done with it as far as I know (spoke with their driver team a few weeks ago) The slightly riskier option is to flash the card with IR firmware for a 9211, the MegaRAID component of that card is purely software and the underlying hardware is supported by mps. Of course a firmware flash gone bad will turn it into an expensive chunk of fiberglass, but if you google around you'll find people who have done so successfully. -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
