FWIW you can cross flash a lot of LSI controllers with IT firmware. eg https://nguvu.org/freenas/Convert-LSI-HBA-card-to-IT-mode/ Of course that may void your warranty or carry some risk you don't want but it does work :) -- Daniel O'Connor "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Re: More CARP issues under 12 (maybe not CARP after all)
To point out the obvious, booting a 12.0 kernel with 11 userland to multiuser mode is seriously unsupported. You really need to boot to single user and install 12.0 userland to really expect things to work. Yes, good point. This has worked on every other machine I have upgraded from 11 to 12, which is why I didnt think of that, but then all the motherboards are slightly different. Is there a reason that a standalone boot is not possible? Sort of - I am on a serial console to do this, which works in the BIOS, and works after the kernel has started booting, but does not work in the loader for some reason, so I can't select single user. So I go to single user by booting multi user and the shutting down. Of course I could use nextboot, so its just lazyness on my part actually. Thanks for pointing this out, I immediately jumped to the CARP conclusion due to last weeks experiences on the other machine, but actually this is far more likely to be the issue. -pete. PS: apparently I have been playing fast and loose with this - and bothering the mailing list about it - since 2005... :-) http://freebsd.1045724.x6.nabble.com/upgrading-5-4-gt-6-0-without-reinstalling-safe-td3932902.html Time to change my ways I think! ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
