I am running into a timeout while booting FreeNAS after turning on CacheCade 2 (SSD Cache) on my LSI 9260-8i controller. I did the Google and found one site that suggested upgrading the Firmware, or that a newer FreeNAS fixes the issue - no dice on either.
The error during boot is (from memory):
mfio: COMMAND 0xfffff(blahblahblah) TIMEOUT after X seconds
If I turn off the CacheCade feature, FreeNAS boots fine.
I even tried to re-install FreeNAS with CacheCade on, and FreeNAS happily installed and allowed me to create a ZFS volume on the LSI, everything was great until I rebooted, then back to the mfio/TIMEOUT errors again.
I am on the latest version of FreeNAS, and the latest firmware upgrade for the LSI card, having updated both this week.
Any ideas?
