OK, I'm in the LSI config screen, and here's what I have in the first
screen:
LSI Logic MPT SCSI Setup Utility Version MPTBIOS-5.02.00
<Boot Adapter List> <Global Properties>
LSI Logic Host Bus Adapters
Adapter PCI Dev/ Port IRQ NVM Boot LSI Logic
Bus Func Number Order Control
<LSI1030 3 60> DC00 11 Yes 1 Disabled
<LSI1030 3 61> D800 11 Yes 0 Enabled
I disabled one of them, since the drives hang off the other one and this
shaves a few seconds off reboot times.
Under <Boot Adapter List>, the only things I can change are the boot
order and the status (enabled/disabled) of the two adaptors.
Under <Global Properties>, I have:
Pause When Boot Alert Displayed [No]
Boot Information Display Mode [Verbose]
Negotiate with devies [Supported]
Video Mode [Color]
Support Interrupt [Hook interrupt, the Default]
Under the enabled device <LSI1030 3 61>, I have:
Adapter Properties
Adapter PCI Dev/
Bus Func
LSI1030 3 61
<Device Properties>
Host SCSI ID [ 7]
SCSI Bus Scan Order [Low to High (0..Max)]
Removable Media Support [None]
CHS Mapping [SCSI Plug and Play Mapping]
Spinup Delay (Secs) [ 2]
Secondary Cluster Server [No]
Termination Control [Auto]
Under <Device Properties>, it shows some details about the connected
drives and let me force them to a lower speed, etc.
The only thing that comes close to "large BIOS" would be the "CHS
Mapping", but either setting ("SCSI Plug and Play Mapping" or "Alternate
CHS Mapping") doesn't boot.
Or am I looking at the wrong thing?
