Subject: LSI MegaRAID SATA 300-X8 problems
Date: Tue, 07 Jun 2005 21:15:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <42A5F235.6000300@buf.fr> (raw)

Hi,

I'm trying to get an LSI MegaRAID SATA 300-X8 controller to work on a 
Debian/sarge system with kernel 2.6.11-9-em64t-p4-smp from unstable. 
The megaraid_mbox module is loaded and seems to identify the controller, 
but whenever I try to access the disk, I get SCSI errors, the controller 
alarm goes off, and upon inspection in the BIOS, the first SATA disc is 
marked `FAILED'.  Reconfiguring the RAID lets me restart the whole process.

Simple question: am I doing something stupid, or else are there known 
problems, or should this normally work?  Pointers to docs would be very 
welcome, I've googled around quite a while but cannot seem to find 
relevant info.

Alex
