(a) yes, the stock mpt driver does support it (b) what issues are you referring to? In my 2008.11rc1b vbox installation, mpt was installed by default: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# pkg search /kernel/drv/mpt INDEX ACTION VALUE PACKAGE path file kernel/drv/mpt pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Likewise with SXCE (from build 1), and [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# pkg contents -r pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED] |grep mpt kernel/drv/amd64/mpt kernel/drv/mpt kernel/drv/mpt.conf So I suspect your system has a vendor and device ID which isn't included by default in /etc/driver_aliases. Try firing up a terminal before you run the installer, and run # prtconf |grep "value.*pci1000" that should show you what device aliases your card is showing up with, and you can then run a command similar to the following: # update_drv -a -i ' "pci1000,3150" ' mpt (which is valid for my system, and note the quotes). hth, James C.
