Indeed, aic94xx firmware is missing from initrd.gz in 10.04.1. Perhaps
it was generated by initramfs-tools before they were fixed (in
0.92bubuntu54)?
For PXE boot, the workaround is to create another initrd with a single
file inside (the firmware), and then pass its name like this:
Strange, it's also missing from 10.10's initrd.gz.

I can confirm that PXE booting (I suspect from a CD as well) of Lucid
SERVER (desktop work fine) does not have the firmware available, so the
modprobe fails.
I can bypass this by:
* Wget'ing the firmware in an alternate firmware ( cd /lib/firmware ; wget
I'm running 9.10 at this time, and every single official kernel release
I still have to extract the initrd, add aic94xx-seq.fw to
{initrdroot}/lib/firmware NOT {initrdroot}/lib/firmware/{kernel-
version}/ and repack the initrd, or it will fail to find root on booting
of the system.
I can't test
Hi azer,
Please be sure to confirm this issue exists with the latest development
release of Ubuntu. ISO CD images are available from

run the following command from a Terminal

im trying to install ubuntu 9.04/9.10 server edition to an old x306m
that has adaptec 9405w… and two sata 160gb HDD… since i don’t need RAID
for these two… what i need is to just install an Ubuntu OS to the first
HDD and use the 2nd HDD as data storage… taking note that i have both
plugged in to
Same problem still exists on Karmic amd64 server install. Our Supermicro
servers have only Adaptec storage controller for SAS disks. Since this
is server distribution, I think this should work out of the box!
Installation CD obviously has firmware issue fixed, because I can do
installation
Building on Delbert's work, the following commands are what I had to do to get
this working. Basically I use an initramfs hook to make sure the firmware and
supporting files are included on the initrd image every time it's built (like
when you do a kernel upgrade). Then you just use

I found a way to get at the Ram disk image and put in the aic94xx
firmware.
Ive tried putting it in /firmware and /lib/firmware
I cannot get it to boot correctly still. Still says firmware is missing.
Any Ideas / Fixes?

After much tinkering, I think I have found what is missing. if you
update-initramfs -k all -c
it #warns #W the firmware /lib/firmware/kernelversion/aic94xx may be missing,
sure enough it was in /lib/firmware
I Copied the firmware file to /lib/firmware/kernelversion/ still says its
missing...
Following up on this, I found the following two bugs on RHEL. The first
reports the same issues, and the solution of rmmod and modprobe aic94xx
works for me. Ie, if I 'sudo rmmod aic94xx' and then 'sudo modprobe
aic94xx', I can then mount my drives without issue, but I have to do
this after each
I can also confirm this on an IBM x3550 server with the Adaptec aic94xx
RAID. I'm getting exactly the same error messages as shown above, and
I've also tried to symlink the aic94xx-seq.fw file as in the previous
comment with the same result. In my case this is not yet a production
system, but it
Confirmed. Same problems:

Same issue with Jaunty install using both the alternate install, and the
desktop install. Firmware fails to load. Using alternate install,
there are no issues on install, but after install, boot fails with
aic94xx firmware error below. On desktop install, it doesn't load on
boot of the cd.
