Installing on FreeBSD
To install the driver on FreeBSD:
1 Start your computer.
2 Insert and mount the driver disk:
mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt
3 Copy the driver package to the /tmp directory:
cp /mnt/aac-02.00.00-x.tgz /tmp
4 Install the driver package:
pkg_add /tmp/aac-02.00.00-x.tgz
5 Reboot your computer, then remove the driver disk.
Note:
Currently, Adaptec Storage Manager is not supported on FreeBSD. To create and
manage arrays, use the
ARC utility. See page 63 for more information.
