Step 3 Configure System to Automatically Load the Driver
To avoid typing in “load rr2310” each time the operating system is booted, the system
must be instructed to automatically load the module during bootup. To configure the
system to automatically install the module, type in the following commands:
# echo ’rr2310_load=”YES”’ >> /boot/defaults/loader.conf
This command will instruct the loader to load the RocketRAID 2310 module together
with the kernel. After using this command, reboot the system. The RocketRAID 2310
module should now automatically load each time the operating system starts up.
Note: When using FreeBSD 4.x, type in the following command to configure the
system:
# mknod /dev/rr2310 c 200 0
Then, check to make sure the node “/dev/rr2310”, is present in the /dev directory.
Step 4 Configure the System to Mount Volumes at Startup
Instruct the system to automatically mount the array by modifying the file /etc/fstab.
Example: Add the following line to instruct the system to mount /dev/da1s1e to
location /mnt/hpt after startup:
/dev/da1s1e /mnt/hpt ufs rw 0 0
