Hi Norman_S:
Re: the Flashpoint card, I know for sure that it is supported by OpenBSD and the BSD Driver Database makes me believe that I am not wrong [ http://www.posi.net/freebsd/drivers/hardware-list.phtml ] Its amazing that the mfg-er doesnt have BSD drivers for it

Flashpoint doesnt seem to be in favour among NIX-ers either... something to do with RAID not working too well [I believe .. these are on the basis of my recollection from what I have read].

Sorry, not to be able to pinpoint a definitive answer, hopefully another NIXer will pick up slack .. however, if you do get it to work, or get an error, would appreciate a followup post just so the rest of us no!

FreeBSD is AWESOME .. blows Linux out of the water for its speciality!
