[OpenIndiana-discuss] Unable to load RAID driver

[Lawrence Giam]

Hi Saso,

The system is not loading the driver correctly. After booting into OI, doing a prtconf | less shows the mpt_sas drivers not loaded. When I tried to manually add, it show the error below.

I have tried booting using OpenIndiana 151a and 151a7 LiveCD/USB to try and detect the card. The system is able to detect the raid card but when I tried to add the drivers "mpt_sas" to the system, I got the following errors:
