HighPoint RocketRAID 1740 - Manual (Page 60)

FreeBSD Driver Support
For FreeBSD 4.x:
# vnconfig vn0c freebsd_xxx.img
# mount /dev/vn0c /mnt
# cp /mnt/rr174x-xxx.ko /modules/rr174x.ko
# vnconfig –du vn0c myfilesystem mount=/mnt
For FreeBSD 5.x:
# mdconfig –a –t vnode –f freebsd_5.x.img –u 0
# mount /dev/md0 /mnt
# cp /mnt/rr174x-xxx.ko /boot/kernel/rr174x.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
174x 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.).
