Cant start hpasm : hpasmxld: Invalid Device: /dev/ipmi0

I was able to successfully install hpasm-7.50-Package.tar on my FreeBSD
7.1-Prerelease system, running HP DL360 G3.


There are no errors with the installation, and kldstat shows :


# kldstat
Id Refs Address    Size     Name
 1    7 0xc0400000 9e8d90   kernel
 2    2 0xc0de9000 6a5d4    acpi.ko
 3    1 0xc4341000 9000     if_bridge.ko
 4    1 0xc434a000 6000     bridgestp.ko
 5    1 0xc857c000 a000     ipmi.ko
 6    1 0xc5137000 2000     smbus.ko
#


Unfortunately, when I try to run the hpasm.sh startup script in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d, I get the following error message :


hpasmxld[76744]: hpasmxld:  Invalid Device: /dev/ipmi0


Indeed, no device named "ipmi0" exists in /dev


Has anyone experienced this before? Suggestions?


Thanks!
