| Adding mfi_linux_enable="YES" to /boot/loader.conf did do the trick of | having the device added to the system: | | # cat /compat/linux/sys/class/scsi_host/host*/proc_name | (null) | megaraid_sas | (null) | | # sysctl compat.linux | compat.linux.oss_version: 198144 | compat.linux.osrelease: 2.6.12 | compat.linux.osname: Linux | | Although the MegaCli utility no longer complains about not finding a | controller, it sadly does nothing else either (except dump core on | certain commands): | | # ./MegaCli -AdpAllinfo -a0 I usually start with that. It should work okay. Check your /compat/linux/dev directory for stuff. It might have created null and some other entries look at the dates. Those nodes could be wrong. We have an empty /compat/linux/dev directory. | # ./MegaCli -AdpGetProp SpinupDriveCount -a0 | | Segmentation fault (core dumped) | # ./MegaCli -LDGetNum -a0 | | Failed to get VD count on adapter -9993. | # ./MegaCli -CfgFreeSpaceinfo -a0 | | Failed to initialize RM | | and so on ... I am guessing this is an issue with the MegaCli software | now; needless to say I certainly doubt that this will allow me to flash | the card bios (or even it if *could*, I would be leery of the process). If one doesn't work the reset probably won't. I be cautious to flash the card. It should work but I haven't tried it. If this is your only card then you have a lot to risk! On prior cards, Adaptec and LSI if the flash failed then the card was toast. MegaCli has some issues as well.
