Thanks in advance

Hallo Claus.

Do you got any solution for this problem? We are as well unable to obtain a working driver and are hesitating to compile one by ourselfs

Thanks!

Could you post the actual device id, i.e. the output of “/sbin/lspci -nnk”?

According to https://wiki.debian.org/LinuxRaidForAdmins#megaraid an LSI MEGAraid seems to be supported by the megaraid_mbos driver which is part of the standard kernel package (on 12.3 and 13.1 at least).

So you shouldn’t have to install any additional driver.

@claus232: To find out the version of a kernel module, use modinfo.
Here on my 13.1:

/sbin/modinfo megaraid_mbox
filename:       /lib/modules/3.11.10-17-desktop/kernel/drivers/scsi/megaraid/megaraid_mbox.ko
version:        2.20.5.1
