In fact, I have exactly the same thing than Mark:
megaraid: probe new device 0x101e:0x1960:0x1028:0x0511: bus 1:slot 2:func 0 megaraid: fw version:[6.62] bios version:[1.03] same device, same firmware, same bios. (Mark should have a Dell PowerEdge 1600SC or similar) On the other hand, Dann seems to have a different hardware: megaraid: probe new device 0x101e:0x1960:0x103c:0x60e8: bus 7:slot 0:func 0 megaraid: fw version:[] bios version:[G ] See? no firmware nor bios version and more over, the last two number of the device is not the same. I don't know if this is relevant but the fact is the device "0x101e:0x1960:0x1028:0x0511", although detected, can't be used "as is" since the logical disks is not seen. By the way, Dann pointed out a way to fix the problem (maybe) : updating the firmware/bios. Unfortunately, there is no update about this controlleur on the dell web site... I can compile myself a vanilla 2.6.22.1 kernel but it will not fix the messy install I've got on that server. The only way I can use is to reinstall a sarge with a dist-upgrade later (but I already done that with a lot of problem so...) with a very minimalist install... According to Mark, it only requires a minor change on the driver code and I will wait for a 4.0r1 to do the job... In the meantime, any suggestion are welcome ;) -- Guillaume Estival http://www.dawan.fr 0810.001.917 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
