I've only had the priv. to run OpenBSD on the 750 and 850 1Us from Dell.

However I have a number of FreeBSD 5.3x hosts on single and dual-proc 1850 models, some with RAID and some with standard SCSI.

The standard SCSI config (on which I run software RAID) probes as:


NAME
     mpt(4) -- LSI Fusion-MPT SCSI/Fibre Channel driver

mpt0: <LSILogic 1030 Ultra4 Adapter> port 0xec00-0xecff mem 0xdfde0000-0xdfdeffff,0xdfdf0000-0xdfdfffff irq 34 at device 5.0 on pci2
mpt0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
ses0 at mpt0 bus 0 target 6 lun 0
da0 at mpt0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da1 at mpt0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0


The hardware RAID (with cache and battery and all) probes as:

NAME
     amr(4) -- AMI MegaRAID PCI-SCSI RAID driver

amr0: <LSILogic MegaRAID> mem 0xdfde0000-0xdfdfffff,0xd80f0000-0xd80fffff irq 46 at device 14.0 on pci2
amr0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
amr0: <LSILogic PERC 4e/Si> Firmware 521S, BIOS H430, 256MB RAM
amrd0: <LSILogic MegaRAID logical drive> on amr0
amrd0: 69880MB (143114240 sectors) RAID 1 (optimal)

Maybe check your invoice?

We have a Dell 1850 with a PERC4/DC controller.  When I try installing OpenBSD
3.8, I am having some troubles.  3.8 will sees the card as with the mpt0
driver.  Which will not recognize my RAID1 config.  The hardware compatibility
guide tells me the mpt0 is support for a standard scsi card.  According to the
hardware guide, the correct driver for RAID support is ami.  When I boot with
the, boot -cs and add the ami driver support, I get a no disk drive support.
To check the drive config I installed and booted another OS.  Any
help/comments would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
