Hi,
I'm trying to get an LSI MegaRAID SATA 300-X8 controller to work on a
Debian/sarge system with kernel 2.6.11-9-em64t-p4-smp from unstable.
The megaraid_mbox module is loaded and seems to identify the controller,
but whenever I try to access the disk, I get SCSI errors, the controller
alarm goes off, and upon inspection in the BIOS, the first SATA disc is
marked `FAILED'. Reconfiguring the RAID lets me restart the whole process.
Simple question: am I doing something stupid, or else are there known
problems, or should this normally work? Pointers to docs would be very
welcome, I've googled around quite a while but cannot seem to find
relevant info.
Alex
