Re: IBM server SAS controller support?

2010-09-13 Thread Christian Thørn Bakken
I've now added the mfi_load option to loader.conf

At boot this gives me the following message:
module_register: module mfi/mfid already exists!
Module mfi/mfid failed to register: 17
This leads me to believe that the driver is already compiled into the kernel, 
as stated by SpamTitan.

The installation procedure still can't find any disks!

Are there any other things I could try? Obviously it can be done, but I'm 
apparently not capable of doing it.

Any suggestions, anyone?

2010-09-10 Thread Christian Thørn Bakken
Sorry about the blank post...

As I wrote in my former post, SpamTitan claims that the driver is already 
compiled into the kernel.
Even if that is correct, it wouldn't hurt to try the loader.conf approach, 
would it? Can I just edit the loader.conf file in a loop  mounted .iso, and 
then just burn the .iso to a bootable CD?

So you have tried and failed?

There are lists of devices here:

but they are incomplete. FWIW, I've successfuly used IBM x3650 M3 with 
the controller which identifies itself as:

ID 0079/1000/03b2/1014)

mfi0: 499 (boot + 3s/0x0020/info) - Firmware version 2.0.03-0689

Re: IBM Server

2006-12-05 Thread Marcelo Celleri

I got it!. The SATA RAID controller is Adaptec AIC-9580W... Is there
full support on FreeBSD for this?

 Hi everyone,
 
 I need to buy a cheap server, I was looking for something good and I
 found the IBM X3400 but I would like to know if FreeBSD has the drivers
 for the SATA RAID controller that comes embedded on the system.
 
 At this time I haven't found the specifications for the controller, but
 I think it's an Adaptec.
 
 
 Thanks a lot,
