Re: [SLE] recognizing megaraid under Suse 7.1

Hi Martin, I suspect I may indeed need to do parameter passing but I do not see any notes that say what needs to be done. The stock megaraid driver and source is part of 7.1 distribution. Where would notes be? Last time I contacted Suse support they informed me that megaraid was unsupported... Babu --- Martin Webster wrote:

I have the AMI (now LSI) MegaRAID PCI controller (actually on motherboard) using the (CMD649) chipset. Here is information:

lspci -vv produces (for the RAID portion only):

00:10.0 RAID bus controller: CMD Technology Inc PCI0649 (rev 02) Subsystem: American Megatrends Inc.: Unknown device 0649 Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort-

I have tried installing the Suse 7.1 issued megaraid.o driver, and another I got off the AMI/LSI people.

insmod megaraid produces:

/tmpdir/megaraid.o: init_module: Cannot allocate memory Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters

Perhaps you should have passed some parameters with insmod? A text file should have come with the megaraid driver; does this provide any clues?
