FreeBSD 11.1,11-stable,12-current on Dell H740p raid
Hi, I got issue with Dell PowerEdge R740/R640 server with H740p and FreeBSD 11.1-Release, 11-stable, 12-current In all version I don't able to find the raid controler, so no disk...so of course impossible to install anything. I don't know if it's the right mailing-list, but if they are someone can help In other way, I can do « any » test for making thing work and help the freebsd team. Because Dell are still a large provider for hardware, and that would be very sad if FreeBSD cannot run on Dell. I still got some time (~ 1 month) before the server go in to production. For information Debian with Linux kernel prio to 4.14 don't work either. Currently only RedHat 7 work out of the box.

Download the driver from https://www.broadcom.com/products/storage/raid-controllers/megaraid-9460-8i#downloads and try that.

Okay. So yes it's working. I just install the server. But...the documentation inside the archive s*cks. If you follow the doc with a standard memstick img it's not working because the mrsas driver is include inside the generic kernel. So you either need to build a personnal memstick with the src of the driver from broadcom, or you need to build a personnal memstick without mrsas driver and load the mrsas.so from broadcom. Looking inside the archive it's seem the mrsas driver from broadcom are in src version. Are someone know why they are not include in FreeBSD source ? I didn't see (but I'm not a specialist) anything (licence) against that Thanks for the help -- Albert SHIH DIO bâtiment 15 Observatoire de Paris Heure local/Local time: Mon Mar 19 16:50:55 CET 2018 ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
