Checked with the Hardware Vendor. That will not do any harm to the access of device they said. Error is only related to bootable state of that SCSI device. MPT Rom boot tries to boot from the device. But there is no bootable meduim or device is found. So its giving this error. > In the meantime, could you please tell me the Hardware Specification, > BIOS Version, linux kernel, dmesg and, lspci output.
