Fighting my AS1000 4/266!

Hi,

	Ok, I think I made some progress. Between 2 people I was able to 
get the BIOS on the DAC960 up to 2.70, not the 2.73 I had hoped, but every 
little bit is help.

	I used the ACRCF utility I was given, and flubbed around for a while
until I think I figured out how to get the disks set up. I then Initialized
them. When I booted FreeBSD, it saw them as ONLINE!!!!! (But, Raid-7....
Hrm, is that a problem, or just a "feature")

	I tried to set it up, doing an (A)utomatic on mlxd0... But for
some reason it won't newfs properly. Its set as 131,0 ... I tried to 
do the Fixit, newfs by hand, and it just won't do it. I forget the exact
error, it might have been Invalid Arguement.

	Any hints where to go next? Should I be going BACKWARDS because of
something?

		Thanks, Tuc/TTSG Internet Services, Inc.
