Make sure you have the Linux ioctl module loaded before linsysfs so it can register the hooks. kldstat/kernel config will help. One sanity check is to do: dhcp194:ambrisko 11] cat /compat/linux/sys/class/scsi_host/host*/proc_name megaraid_sas (null) dhcp194:ambrisko 12] If you don't see megaraid_sas then it isn't going to work and is missing the linux mfi module. Also you need to set: sysctl compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.12 or things won't work well. This will probably break your fc-4_9 Linux install until the updates to Linux emulation is merged (maybe it has but I don't think so). Since it is a static binary we don't have linux base installed. Doug A. ___ Adding mfi_linux_enable=YES to /boot/loader.conf did do the trick of having the device added to the system: # cat /compat/linux/sys/class/scsi_host/host*/proc_name (null) megaraid_sas (null) # sysctl compat.linux compat.linux.oss_version: 198144 compat.linux.osrelease: 2.6.12 compat.linux.osname: Linux Although the MegaCli utility no longer complains about not finding a controller, it sadly does nothing else either (except dump core on certain commands): # ./MegaCli -AdpAllinfo -a0 # ./MegaCli -AdpGetProp SpinupDriveCount -a0 Segmentation fault (core dumped) # ./MegaCli -LDGetNum -a0 Failed to get VD count on adapter -9993. # ./MegaCli -CfgFreeSpaceinfo -a0 Failed to initialize RM and so on ... I am guessing this is an issue with the MegaCli software now; needless to say I certainly doubt that this will allow me to flash the card bios (or even it if *could*, I would be leery of the process). ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If one doesn't work the reset probably won't. I be cautious to flash the card. It should work but I haven't tried it. If this is your only card then you have a lot to risk! On prior cards, Adaptec and LSI if the flash failed then the card was toast. MegaCli has some issues as well.
