April 20, 20233 yr I'm trying to install an LSI 9211-8i in my system, but I'm not seeing it whatsoever during bootup. None of the lights on the card turn on at all. I made a FreeDOS drive and when I ran the sas2flsh -listall command line, I get a "PAL not initialized" error (or very similar to that wording). I attempted to create a sas2flash efi thumb drive, but it does absolutely nothing - it literally boots direct into the BIOS. I can't find anything in the BIOS itself that shows what's plugged into the motherboard, which is only the 9211, btw. Any ideas?
April 24, 20233 yr I had the same thing.. had to do with that i had the UEFI version of the flasher. Follow the guide where it says UEFI Motherboards https://techmattr.wordpress.com/2016/04/11/updated-sas-hba-crossflashing-or-flashing-to-it-mode-dell-perc-h200-and-h310/
