What is the exact version of both the controller and the operating=20
system? PERC 5/i works fine for several of my machines:
mfi0: <Dell PERC 5/i> mem 0xf80f0000-0xf80fffff,0xde4e0000-0xde4fffff=20
irq 78 at device 14.0 on pci2
mfi0: Megaraid SAS driver Ver 2.00
the above one is FreeBSD 6.3.
It might be that they've changed the hardware revision so it's not=20
supported by the old drivers, so check with pciconf -lv that you have=20
something like this:
mfi0@pci2:14:0: class=3D0x010400 card=3D0x1f031028 chip=3D0x00151028 rev=3D=
0x00=20
hdr=3D0x00
vendor =3D 'Dell Computer Corporation'
device =3D 'PERC 5/i RAID Controller Integrated RAID controller'=
class =3D mass storage
subclass =3D RAID
