I've been looking around and cannot find an answer to my issue. I've got a Dell Optiplex machine running FreeNAS 9.2.x, works great for what I need. When I initially installed I needed to add the following lines to the loader.conf in order to allow it to connect to the network.
hw.pci.enable_msi="0"
hw.pci.enable_msix="0"
Fast forward to this weekend, I attempted to load FreeNAS on a new USB stick. Made the tweak to the loader.conf and booted the system. The issues have returned!! I can not connect to the network again.
Looking deeper I ran "sysctl hw.pci" and find that the two values above are set to 1 and no matter what I put into the loader.conf it will not take effect. I've confirmed this to be a problem both on my NAS box and within my VMWare test (as well as an old laptop). Nothing I put into the loader.conf takes hold, at least not according to sysctl. Any ideas? Before anyone asks, I've confirmed multiple times that I do not have a typo.
