Thanks, David. Here it is: # grep mpt /etc/driver_aliases mpt "pci1000,30" mpt "pci1000,50" mpt "pci1000,54" mpt "pci1000,56" mpt "pci1000,58" mpt "pci1000,62" mpt "pciex1000,58" <- the 1068e controller for the boot disk mpt "pciex1000,62" mptt "pciex1000,56" <- the 1064e which I am trying to put in target mode
