Hi Folks, Me again.
This time I got a Rocket 600 series controller (622 - PCIe 1x with 2 eSATA 3 ports) on the Marvel 88SE9128 chipset. The card does, on boot, recognise any hard drives inserted. However, all is not rosy. cfgadm -v sata2/0 disconnected unconfigured failed unavailable sata-port n /devices/pci@0,0/pci8086,3b42@1c/pci1b4b,9123@0:0 sata2/1 disconnected unconfigured failed unavailable sata-port n /devices/pci@0,0/pci8086,3b42@1c/pci1b4b,9123@0:1 Messages show...

My mind is going overtime. I've eliminated the hard drive, the caddy and the cables ... all are fine when attached via the motherboard e-sata but not via the Rocket e-sata card. Any ideas please? Right now, I'm abandoning the effort and I'm off to bed. I'll try any commands people can think of, in the morning. Many thanks, Michelle. _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
