CDB: 12 e0 00 00 24 00 (probe0:mps0:0:3:7): CAM status: CCB request completed with an error (probe0:mps0:0:3:7): Retrying command (probe0:mps0:0:3:7): INQUIRY. CDB: 12 e0 00 00 24 00 (probe0:mps0:0:3:7): CAM status: CCB request completed with an error In following post it is written that : these are due to a mismatch between firmware and driver version . FreeBSD 9 = ships with driver version 16 and FreeBSD 10 includes version 19. Linux currently has version 18. So make sure that in step 11, you always flash the version that matches your operating system=E2=80=99s driver version, don=E2=80=99t = blindly go with version P20 or the latest version Here is the link to that Post : http://blog.michael.kuron-germany.de/2014/11/crossflashing-dell-perc-h200-t= o-lsi-9211-8i/comment-page-1/ =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D It looks like that it might be the issue of crash as we're using LSI-9211 controller and maybe due to mismatch between firmware and driver version this crash occurs.
