I bought a Dell Power Edge T110 ii. It turns out it had a Dell H200 in it which was a nice surprise. I am trying to flash it to IT mode, but any time I try to do anything with the card using MEGAREC, I get an error. I am doing this from a FreeDOS bootable USB key. For example, when I run the command
"megarec -readsbr 0 sbr"
I get the error message shown in the picture. I know it's doing something, because when I go back and check the Megarec directory on the USB key it did create the sbr file, but it's empty.
I get a similar error message (but with different numbers) when trying the
"megarec -writesbr 0 sbrempty.bin"
and
"megarec -cleanflash 0"
commands.
I have tried:
-2 different computers
-Multiple different installs of FreeDOS on multiple USB keys
sas2flash can read the card's data seemingly without issue, so I assume it's an issue with Megarec.
I've spent almost 4 hours trying this, I've been thinking it might be better to just buy a 9211, since it seems they're easier to flash than Dell models.

Detailed newcomers' guide to crossflashing LSI 9211/9300/9305/9311/9400/94xx HBA and variants
There's hundreds of threads on crossflashing variants of LSI 9211/9300/9305/9311/94xx cards here, on ServeTheHome, and on blogs. But they don't always discuss the subtleties of doing it on an EFI board for users who may never have used EFI...
