Hi,

We have some abandoned NetApp 6290 hardware, that was replaced by FAS8080, and I want to run FreeBSD on it. The original software, OnTap, is also based on FreeBSD. Somebody once told me that it is simple, something like "just change the kernel loader address". Does anyone have more information about this? It would be so cool to run ZFS and bhyve on them (just for fun, not for production).

Meanwhile, I am going to try netboot FreeBSD/amd64 and see how far I get.

TIA,
