I have tried to install FreeBSD 10.3 in a HP DL20 Gen 9 server with P440 smart array. My installation media is in a USB drive. In BIOS I set the Boot mode to Legacy boot mode. Created my P440 array and a logical drive with RAID 1. Disabled B140i controller. The installation process went on and I saw the following messages :>ciss0: <HP Smart Array P440ar> port 0x2000-0x20ff mem > 0x92c00000-0x92cfffff,0x92d00000-0x92d003ff irq 16 at device 0.0 on > pci3 > ciss0: PERFORMANT Transport > ... > da0 at ciss0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 > da0: <HP RAID 1(1+0) OK> Fixed Direct Access SPC-3 SCSI device > da0: Serial Number PDNLH0BRH8S3RF > da0: 135.168MB/s transfers > da0: Command Queueing enabled > da0: 139979MB (286677120 512 byte sectors)Similar to yours but not exactly the same. But I have ciss0 on P440 and da0 on ciss0. I think my P440 is properly probed and instantiated. After this stage my installation process hangs with the following error: Mounting from ufs:/dev/ufs/FreeBSD_Install failed with error 19. Then my usb keyboard is frozen and I can not enter anything to let the installation process continue. I can not figure what the problem is. Could you please give me some solution? Could it be an installation media download issue?. Installation media creation problem ? ( I used dd if=FreeBSD-10.3-RELEASE-i386-mini-memstick.img of=/dev/da1 bs=1M conv=sync command to create the boot usb) Regards, Chandrasena -----Original Message----- From: Mark Saad [mailto:nonesuch at longcount.org] Sent: Sunday, 3 September 2017 3:56 AM To: sthaug at nethelp.no Cc: vpc at ulka.com.au; rainer at ultra-secure.de; FreeBSD-stable at FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: HP Smart array P440 support All Also don't forget to is install cciss_vol_status to monitor the array . --- Mark Saad | nonesuch at longcount.org On Sep 2, 2017, at 11:41 AM, sthaug at nethelp.no wrote:>>> I have HP DL20 Gen 9 server.
