Fw: Problems with LSI MegaRaid 1068e

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



To whom it may concern:

I am working with a SuperMicro "Super Server" AS2020A-8RB with an 
integrated LSI MegaRaid 1068e (Firmware M1068e.01.08221427R).

The configuation uses 3x 73 GB SAS drives in a RAID 5 configuration (using 
the RAID key/iButton).

I am trying to get some combination of kernel and driver to detect these 
drives to know avail.  I have tried a variety of boot CDs, pre-compiled 
modules, and even patching the kernel source myself and compiling the 
driver on the LSI website.  Nothing detects the RAID-5 logical drive.

Using vanilla kernel source version 2.6.23.12 and the LSISAS1068E Linux 
driver version 4.00.13.04-1, I get the following compilation error:

# make modules

What is the easiest way to boot up on a LiveCD for Linux to conduct and 
install that will detect the RAID-5 logical drive on this controller?

What is the best combination of kernel and driver source code that I can 
use on a production system?

Please let me know if you have any suggestions or if there are links to a 
HOWTO or better drivers/patches to use with this hardware.

Thank you,
