- Urgent
I initially installed RC4 in place of 6.6.6 to address an issue I was having with the LSIO NVIDIA plugin. However, the issue seems to be related to unRAID itself. When I install the NVIDIA unRAID 6.6.6 build, disks connected to my Rocket 750 PCIe SATA controller are not recognized. This can be replicated even with no GPU installed, so the GPU isn’t the problem. If I revert back to vanilla unRAID 6.6.6, the disks come back. Even with a GPU installed, booting under vanilla, all drives come up. BIOS settings look good as far as I can tell and I've gone as far as to backup and nuke my USB to start from scratch. Same result.
On recommendation from the NVIDIA support forum, I upgraded to RC4 (vanilla, not NVIDIA version,) but had the same issue. I nuked the USB again and installed RC3 with the USB Creator. It hung for a very long time while booting, so I dusted off a display, keyboard and mouse to see what was going on. The messages it hags on are all related to the 750. Once boot completes, it also take forever for emhttp to start. Between the two hangups, we're talking 5+ minutes to boot. The drives attached to the 750 did not show up. I upgraded in the unRAID web UI from RC3 to RC4 with the same result.
I nuked the USB again, installed 6.6.6 via the USB Creator, booted normally with all drives recognized. Upgraded directly to RC4 from the web UI, and got the same result as above.
None of these were the NVIDIA builds, and none of them had any config files carried over. They were all clean. So it seems the 750 is just not cooperating with 6.7 at the moment. I reverted to 6.6.6 and all is back to normal.
I'm tagging this as urgent since the Rocket 750 is used in the 45Drives Storinator and user impact may be significant. If this is improper, mods please advise.
