Does FreeBSD 7.0 work on a DL145G3?

[bmcgonigle at about.com]

Pardon the top post, I'm on a blackberry. It's at the point where it tries to mount root after the kernel loads all of the modules and such. It would occasionally try to drop me to a shell but it can't find libelf.so.6. Sometimes it would complain of a bus error. I used two different machines so I know it's not actually a hardware error. I'm assuming it's the driver giving me trouble. 

I downloaded the 7.0-STABLE-200803 snapshot iso's and it installed and booted ok. Unfortunately, it doesn't come with any packages. I had to run sysinstall after the first boot and change the version to 7.0-release to install what I needed. It looks ok so far. I'll be testing it on a DL360G5 tomorrow. Hopefully a little smoother.

Is that in the F1 of the bootmanager or is that later?
