You might have slid in between some development. Could you please try -current? If this doesn't work contact me off list and we'll figure it out.

The pcibios thing basically means that the BIOS on this board is lying to the OS. See if there is a newer BIOS out there for this board and try that.

Hi all,

Having read the list archives, the decision was made to get a 300-8x for
a new server I'm putting together.
However, I'm having 2 distinct problems. First of all, the card is only
detected when pcibios is disabled. The second being that during the
installation process, the disklabels are written, but the install then
"hangs" just after asking for confirmation to delete all data on the
paritions. If left for a while, "ami0: timeout ccb 126" is printed several times. This has been tried both with the original firmware (LSI_FW_813F)
and with the latest firmware (LSI_FW_813J).
There is a slew of dmesgs available (see the links below); with the new and old firmware, and with and without pcibios enabled. The motherboard is
an Intel 925 chipset part.

Motherboard information: http://www.intel.com/design/servers/boards/ SE7221BK1-E/index.htm

Dmesgs: http://midworld.co.uk/~dmesg/

Basically, has anyone got any ideas of how to get this thing working?

Thanks for any help

Pete
