Note: If you have configured a RAID 10 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, create a 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

To avoid typing in “load hptmv6” 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 ’hptmv6_load=”YES”’ > > /boot/defaults/loader.conf

This command will instruct the loader to load the RR2240 module together with the

kernel. After using this command, reboot the system. The RR2240 module should

now automatically load each time the operating system starts up.

Note: When using FreeBSD 4.x, type in the follwing command to configure the

system:

# mknod /dev/hptmv6 c 200 0

Then, check to make sure the node “/dev/hptmv6”

, is present in the /dev directory.
