HighPoint RocketRAID 2644X4 - Manual (Page 76)

FreeBSD Driver Support
If the module has been loaded successfully you should see the RR2644 banner and a
display screen of the attached drives. You can now access the drives as a SCSI device
(if you have no other SCSI device, the first device is /dev/da0, then /dev/da1, etc.).
Example:

Default: F1

Default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/loader

Note: If you have configured a RAID 1/0 using 4 disks, it will be registered to system
as device /dev/da0. You can use “/stand/sysinstall” to create partitions and
disklabels (like da0s1e) on da0. Then you can create new filesystem using “newfs /
dev/da0s1e”. Now you can mount /dev/da0s1e to somewhere to access it.
Step 3 Configure System to Automatically Load the Driver
Most likely, you will not want to type “load rr2644” each time you boot up the
system.Therefore you must install the module and tell the system about it. To config-
