I havent updated my Areca boxes in a bit, but I recall just dropping the source code in place of what was there and recompiling. I was also told by Areca to make sure I had the latest firmware at the time too. I asked the Areca people what their plans were for the driver on the website and they said they submitted the driver to be merged into the tree, but either didnt email the right people, or no one had time to do the merge/import.

Dear BR, GReenX., I have this last driver on my lab for areca testing procedure. I promised that the driver sould passed testing on Power Mac and SPARC machine. But I can not install FreeBSD 6.0 on my Power Mac G5 system till now. Its coding style not yet all change into unix style. This code had ran more a week of my testing script. You can use it till my final release code for FreeBSD org.
