I have not installed FreeBSD using iLo and virtual CD method. I will read

Thanks.

Just tested, HBA mode... Machine BIOS U22 v1.80, one-time booted in Legacy
mode with mfsBSD iso in Virtual CD drive (through iLO), recreated system
zpool to mirror of 2 drives, booted in UEFI mode - it does work.

RE: HP Smart array P440 support

2017-09-04 Thread Priyadarshana Chandrasena
The BIOS version is U22 v2.22 and the motherboard specification can not be 
found. But the machine is 823562-B21. 

When the boot mode is in UEFI the machine does not recognize a bootable disk to 
boot from and it specifically ask for a UEFI boot disk. When the boot mode is 
in Legacy mode I can boot from usb and external cd but hangs the booting giving 
error : Mounting from ufs:/dev/ufs/FreeBSD_Install failed with error 19. In 
legacy mode I installed Ubuntu 16.4 from a USB. Ubuntu 16.4 does not boot from 
the usb in UEFI mode.

I maintain that it's wrong.

 

However, to make progress, what version of the BIOS is it? What motherboard? 
What UEFI compliance does it claim?

Our UEFI stuff is designed so that the defaults will just work... I find it odd 
that your computer doesn't work with the defaults. IT's BIOS doesn't even 
consider the USB drive a bootable device?

Hi,

Why?

It should work in UEFI.



That said, we only have DL360 and DL380 here.

Never saw a DL20 besides on slides from HP ;-)

RE: HP Smart array P440 support

2017-09-03 Thread Priyadarshana Chandrasena
I have tried to install FreeBSD 10.3 in a HP DL20 Gen 9 server with P440
smart array. My installation media is in a USB drive.

In BIOS I set the Boot mode to Legacy boot mode. 
Created my P440 array and a logical drive with RAID 1.
Disabled B140i controller.

The installation process went on and I saw the following messages :  

>ciss0:  port 0x2000-0x20ff mem 
> 0x92c0-0x92cf,0x92d0-0x92d003ff irq 16 at device 0.0 on

> da0: Command Queueing enabled
> da0: 139979MB (286677120 512 byte sectors)

Similar to yours but not exactly the same. But I have ciss0 on P440 and da0
on ciss0. I think my P440 is properly probed and instantiated. After this
stage my installation process hangs with the following error:

Mounting from ufs:/dev/ufs/FreeBSD_Install failed with error 19.

Then my usb keyboard is frozen and I can not enter anything to let the
installation process continue. 

I can not figure what the problem is. Could you please give me some
solution? Could it be an installation media download issue?. Installation
media creation problem ? ( I used 
dd if=FreeBSD-10.3-RELEASE-i386-mini-memstick.img of=/dev/da1 bs=1M
conv=sync command to create the boot usb)

Chandrasena

HP Smart array P440 support

I have HP DL20 Gen 9 server. But I can not install FreeBSD 10.2 in it. I
have a HP smart array P440 in my server. I can not find out anywhere if ciss
driver support include HP Gen 9 storage controllers.  Could you please
update the ciss driver in 10.3?
