    jimp: thanks a lot!

    I'm not sure about the link itself, but it's in the second half of the mentioned page.
    there are 2 patches and I'm not sure if both are needed or just one of them.
    after these 2 patches a guy says it's working, so…

    thanks again for your help.

      I think I got both patches, and they seem to apply.

      It's building a new image now, I'll post a link when it's ready.

          It's still building, but I figured I'd ask, do you want a firmware update file, or a full install iso?

              Ok, if anyone is experiencing this issue with MPT controllers, please try this 1.2.3-RC full install ISO:

              http://pingle.org/files/pfSense-1.2.3-mptfix.iso.gz

              It has the patches from FreeBSD PR kern/130330 in it, so hopefully the issue is fixed.

              If it is fixed, I can try to get the patches in.

                Thank you so much!
                downloading it right now.
                I'm at home now, but I will test it first thing tomorrow morning.

                thank you.

                  OK, I'm here to report and confirm it's working!
                  Boot live CD with RAID1 not synced - worked.
                  Boot live CD with only one drive of the RAID1 - worked.
                  Added the second drive while "online" - worked.
                  Installed on hard drive (with RAID1 of course), rebooted and still working!

                  It would be great if you could include those patches in the final release.

                  Thanks so much!

                    I submitted the patches, so unless they break something and get pulled, they should be in the next snapshot (or the one after, depending on where the builder is at right now).

                      I can also confirm the patch works. No more kernel panic when rebuilding/degraded RAID. Tested with 1.2.3-20090623.

                      Thank you, jimp!
                      :)
