Ed, Your work-around works on 7-stable as of this morning. I have quite a few 2200S equipped systems that I am transitioning from 6.X to 7-stable and aaccli is necessary to be able to insert/remove drives and initialize them into storage arrays. sysutils/arcconf says it needs aacraid-driver

I'm seeing some regressions in the various management tools for Adaptec AAC cards on FreeBSD 7.0-RC1 amd64. I'm trying to use both the 32-bit FreeBSD aaccli binary from the sysutils/aaccli port, and also the 64-bit FreeBSD arcconf from the sysutils/arcconf port (v5.20.17414). The card is an A
