IBM x345 + EXP400

I'm not sure of the exact ServeRaid controller model -- it's
probably a 6M or the model right below that (if there is such a
thing!).

Did you have to do any magic besides what you send in the url?

Also, slightly offtopic for this group, but I've seen an x345 dual
processor "freeze" after a brand new installation once the console
comes up. Going into single-user mode makes things freeze when the
prompt for what shell I'd like to use comes up.

I'll try it in about 12 hours :)

I have approx. 8 IBM x345 machines running FreeBSD (5.2.1 release). They
have all a ServeRaid 6M controller because there is also a LTO drive
connected. Works fine no problem. What kind of RAID solution are you having.
We also have the EXP400 (very nice indeed!!).
I should go for the 5.x Freebsd. 5.3 will be released very shortly.
The ServeRAID cd works. If else you can configure RAID1 through the bios of
the LSI controller.

I've been reading some older posts to figure out how to get either
4.10 or 5.2.1 running on an IBM x345. Here's what is in this
particular machine...

x345, 6 internal 10k 146GB disks.
An internal U320 LVD SCSI Adapter
An EXP400 External Array with 14x146 10k drives

What I found was this...

But I'm curious to know...

a) does this work for arrays setup using the ServerGuide
configuration CD delivered with the hardware?
b) does all this actually work? :)
c) what kind of error reporting is there, if it works, to the
Operating System?

Hopefully we won't have to go the "luser unix route"

Thanks.
