Note: I'm flashing IR for a hardware raid and the raid option show in the HBA bios
I did unpack and only placed the 3 files required for flash and bios update in the lsi folder, SAS9300_8i_IT.bin, mptsas3.rom and sas3flash. I verifies that each file is in the root/lsi and /boot/lsi directories as noted in the tutorial.
I have run into a problem making the flash executable or even confirming adapters
I enter chmod +x sas3flash but get chmod: cannot access 'sas3flash': No such file or directory
I enter ./sas3flash -listall and get -bash: ./sas3flash: No such file or directory
I have listed the contents of the lsi folder and find all 3 files present (I'm upgrading the BIOS also).
Running a LSI SAS 9300-8i PCI Express to 12Gb/s HBA. If you need more build info, I can share.
