freebsd-stable Digest, Vol 84, Issue 3

[Gilles Bruno]

Hi Gareth,

we are currently working on it in order to make FreeBSD 4.10-STABLE 
recognize our PowerEdge 1850 Perc 4e/SI (not a PCI-Express one !!)

Next week we'll also test a Perc 4/DC on it

Basically, you just have to add it's pci signature to the amr driver. 
The following patch applies to amr_pci.c (cvsup'ed)

It has not been thouroughtly tested so use it at your own risk - but so 
far it has not made any glitches to us
