Driver Installation Under FreeBSD
Note: Before installing the 3ware driver, you must have already installed your 3ware RAID controller in the system.
A drive or unit managed by the 3ware RAID controller may be configured to be your system’s boot device. Or, you can use another device as your boot device, such as a disk attached to the motherboard.
The steps you follow to install the driver and make your RAID unit available depend on whether it will be your boot device. This chapter provides
