FreeBSD Driver Support

For FreeBSD 5.x:

# mdconfig –a –t vnode –f freebsd_5.x.img –u 0

# mount /dev/md0 /mnt

# cp /mnt/rr2310-xxx.ko /boot/kernel/rr2310.ko

# umount /mnt

# mdconfig –d –u md0

Step 2 Test the Driver Module

Test the driver module to ensure that it works with the system, by loading it during
bootup. If the module has been loaded successfully you should see the RocketRAID
2310 banner and a display screen of the attached drives. You can now access the
drives as a SCSI device.

Note: If you have no other SCSI device, the first device is /dev/da0, then /dev/da1,
etc.).
