Thanks for your response. Yes, unfortunately, the DAG software for the DAG card
we wish to use on this machine supports 5.4, but has not been thoroughly tested
for more recent versions of FreeBSD. We could use Linux, but I prefer FreeBSD.
I am exploring switching the PERC 5i with a PERC 4 controller on this machine
(it's a Dell Poweredge 2900). The PERC 4 is supported in 5.4

I am trying to install an Endace DAG card for traffic capture on a new

limitations for the DAG software, I have to install FreeBSD 5.4 on this

However, the install CD does not see any drives at all - my guess is
FreeBSD 5.4 has no drivers for the PERC 5i controller. Does anyone know a
workaround for this? Is there a PERC 5i driver available for FreeBSD 5.4?
TIA for your responses.
I am guessing you are right. 5.4 is pretty old.
Is there any good reason you don't go to a more
modern version of FreeBSD?
