4.9 (4.10) on Fujitsu-Siemens Primergy RX100?
I'm planning to use subj 19" 1U server in production system, but FSC don't officially support FreeBSD on any of they servers. In technical data I found some piece of infos about this system. Some parts of system are not in the http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.9R/hardware-i386.html , but very close to them. Server hardware-i386.html RAID: Promise 20270 Only 20265,20269 and some FastTrack? LAN: Intel 82540EM(1Gbit) Supported LAN: Intel 82550PM(100Mbit) Seems like not supported, but intel.com tells opposite? Does anybody using RX100 in production? Is there any problems with RAID or LAN adapter? Server datasheet: http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/products/intel_servers/rack/primergy_rx100.html then click Datasheet Any help appreciated.

There's Tyan boards that are very similar that work fine.> RAID: Promise 20270 Only 20265,20269 and some FastTrack?Promise dev IDs iterate pretty rapidly, but Soren also keeps the Promise support fresh.> LAN: Intel 82540EM(1Gbit) Supported > LAN: Intel 82550PM(100Mbit) Seems like not supported, but intel.com tells opposite?No problems on either of these (em and fxp, respectively) A report from an actual user would be good, but from the description I don't see anything that would be a problem. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
