Also, I recently read that the newest Dragonfly CD booted into a live
filesystem, and could set up a PXE boot server. Sounds aw

I pored through the system manual on the way home. Apparently there are
TWO SATA controllers on the MB. It would appear that by default, the
Marvell controller is used, so maybe the thing is that I can get in
tomorrow, swap the cable from

Hello,
I just got some SuperMicro 6014H-T servers in the door. Nice, as ever,
but, uhm, no FreeBSD.
I've got two Western Digital 80GB SATA drives in here, which I intend to
gmirror.
The system comes with this funky Adaptec thing that does a "fake RAID"
sort of thing where it marks the disks and

No. g4u and a script might do a good job for you if your hardware is
mostly similar.

Danny,
A late reply, but I had some nasty trouble recently with some dual-Xeon
SuperMicros. The install CD would crash and burn, unless I nooted in

Because raid5 is very complicated, and so support has not yet been
implemented?

Hello,
BACKGROUND
I need to purchase a new system for our developers, for use as a
Postgres database test server. Having a RAID, probably RAID1, is
desirable for performance and reliability. I have recently set up a
system with a gmirror-based software RAID1 on a pair of 250GB ATA
drives. I woul

Okay.
Well, FWIW, fdisk -I does *not* work successfully for me, under any
