Hello,

I have an interesting question, I have a Pentium 4 2.4Ghz (No HT Enabled),
2x80GB SATA Hard Drives in RAID 1. The box boots, works, etc. However,
whenever you try and do an fsck -y, it says:

root at bonjour(~)% fsck -y

The drives are Seagate SATA's (7200RPM) with a 3Ware SATA RAID Controller
(8006-2LP) using the twe kernel driver. The drives themselves allow data
to be read to/written from them, but fsck will not work (and is hanging
things on boot).

Anyone got any ideas? I looked at www.3ware.com earlier and it says that
the 8006-2LP's support FreeBSD 4.x, but not 5.x - could this be a result
of that, seeing as otherwise the drives/RAID work fine (AFAIK, it could
not be and I'm just not sure how to test it).

TIA,
-- Jonathan
