drjUnraid Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) I had a working setup with a 4 port intel network card and pfsense running in a VM (following Spaceinvader guide mostly). Then I had a disk fail and some issues, that i've fixed. Now my last issue is I can't get my pfsense working again. It seems that unRaid keeps detecting and initializing my 4 port NIC even thought I have used the "append vfio-pci.ids=8086:150e initrd=/bzroot" in my syslinux config. This used to work fine, but now unRaid just keeps detecting the card and I can't pass it thru to the VM. Any suggestion? I've tried deleting the vfio-pci.ids=8086:150e line and rebooting, but adding it back it still doesn't work. nas4x12-diagnostics-20200809-1723.zip Edited August 10, 2020 by drjUnraid Quote Link to comment

ljm42 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Appending vfio-pci.ids in syslinux has been problematic in recent versions of Unraid. More background here: Quote Link to comment
drjUnraid Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 Thanks. I tried the plug-in using v6.7.3 and I ran into the same issue that @Keexrean had where two ports were being passed, but two were remaining in Unraid. Unraid was also randomly reassigning the eth0 interface to the HW address of the wrong Ethernet port after reboots. I then uninstalled the plugin, installed v6.9.0 Beta 25. I used the now built in tool to select the 4 ethernet ports off the NIC. That was the solution as it is now working again. I'm back to just having append initrd=/bzroot in my syslinux config. 1 Quote Link to comment
Keexrean Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Hi everyone, and thanks for tagging me on that, else I would have missed it. So it seems 6.9 will indeed solve the issue, but as I prefer to wait for the stable release (because this server is kinda important, and I can't afford to run into beta-issues), I might still go barbarian on it in the mean time with some rmmod if I fail to sit tight until 6.9 get released.

rachid596 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Install 6.8 and install the plugin from the community appsEnvoyé de mon HD1913 en utilisant Tapatalk Quote Link to comment
Keexrean Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) @rachid596 I'ld advise you to read a bit more closely because I'm already on 6.8.1 and with the plugin, and the precise topic is about how it doesn't work with that setup. You're welcome. Edited August 10, 2020 by Keexrean Quote Link to comment

Keexrean Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Do you realize the issue by itself is already troubleshot and solved? And that it may be linked to some certain hardware and that your precise situation isn't a miracle solution for everyone else? Quote Link to comment
