Hi I have this controller with 4 sata drives connected to it. After hours of searching and trying different things I cannot get any drives to be detected.
They are seen in the bios. currently I have cat /etc/modprobe.d/marvell.conf options ahci marvell_enable=1 tail -n 3 /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf # marvell pata blacklist pata_marvell I have ran update-initramfs -u but this does not work. root@server:~# lspci | grep Marvell 02:07.0 PCI bridge: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88SB2211 PCI Express to PCI Bridge (rev 01) 03:00.0 RAID bus controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88SE6145 SATA II PCI-E controller (rev a1) lsmod | sort auth_rpcgss 53380 2 nfsd,nfs drm 241921 2 i915,drm_kms_helper drm_kms_helper 46978 1 i915 fscache 61529 1 nfs hid 99592 2 hid_microsoft,usbhid hid_microsoft 12888 0 i2c_algo_bit 13423 1 i915 i915 477438 1 iptable_filter 12810 1 ip_tables 27473 1 iptable_filter joydev 17693 0 lockd 90326 2 nfsd,nfs lp 17799 0 mac_hid 13253 0 Module Size Used by nfs 356410 0 nfs_acl 12883 2 nfsd,nfs nfsd 277809 2 parport 46562 1 lp psmouse 97443 0 r8169 62099 0 sata_mv 33447 0 serio_raw 13211 0 shpchp 37277 0 snd 78855 6 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hwdep,snd_pcm,snd_timer snd_hda_codec 127706 2 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec_realtek 224173 1 snd_hda_intel 33773 0 snd_hwdep 13668 1 snd_hda_codec snd_page_alloc 18529 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm snd_pcm 97188 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec snd_timer 29990 1 snd_pcm soundcore 15091 1 snd sunrpc 245863 6 nfsd,nfs,lockd,auth_rpcgss,nfs_acl uas 18180 0 usbhid 47199 1 usb_storage 49198 0 video 19596 1 i915 x_tables 29846 3 xt_multiport,iptable_filter,ip_tables xt_multiport 12597 1 root@server:~# cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=12.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=precise DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS" root@server:~# uname -a Linux server 3.2.0-34-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Thu Nov 15 10:48:16 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Thanks -- "This guarantee is not guaranteed"
