If you install Opensolaris with the AHCI settings off, then switch them on, it will fail to boot
I had to reinstall with the settings correct. the best way to tell if ahci is working is to use cfgadm if you see your drives there, ahci is on if not, then you may need to reinstall with it on (for the rpool at least) On Sat, May 22, 2010 at 4:43 PM, Brian <broco...@vt.edu> wrote: > Is there a way within opensolaris to detect if AHCI is being used by > various controllers? > > I suspect you may be accurate an AHCI is not turned on.
