FreeBSD Driver Support
Now you can mount /dev/da0s1e to somewhere to access it.
Step 3 Configure System to Automatically Load the Driver
Most likely, you will not want to type "load hptiop" each time you boot up the
system. Therefore you must install the module and tell the system about it. To
configure system to automatically load the driver, type in the following commands:
# echo 'hptiop_load="YES"' >> /boot/defaults/loader.conf
This tells the loader to try loading the RR4320 module together with the kernel.
Now, reboot the system. RR4320 module should be automatically loaded each time
system start up.
Note: If FreeBSD you installed is 4.x version, you should type the following com-
mand to configure your system:
# mknod /dev/hptiop c 200 0
Then, please check whether node"/dev/hptiop"exists in /dev directory.
Step 4 Configure System to Mount Volumes when Startup
Now you can inform the system to automatically mount the array by modifying the file
/etc/fstab. E.g. You can add the following line to tell the system to mount /dev/da1s1e
to location /mnt/hpt after startup:
/dev/da1s1e /mnt/hpt ufs rw 0 0
4 - Updating the Driver
To update the driver with a new version you simply reinstall the driver following the
previous section, "Install the driver on an existing system".
