But, to support YDL Powerstation's built-in Obsidian SAS controller you will need [0]. To properly set boot-device variable in nvram and correct partition type in ybin you need [1]. Therefore, to boot YDL Powerstation off, you need both. [0] http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/108566/ [1] http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/111893/ Milan

As I said in the relase for .17 I'm going to focus on adding sysfs support to ofpath. It needs some love. It's goign to be tough to add the /sys support without breaking the many "legacy" systems out there. I have acces to a YDL Powerstation so I'll certainly be looking at these patches on that system. Yours Tony
