Hello I purchased a pre flashed “IT mode” H200 raid card so I can run ZFS on my Dell PowerEdge 710.
how ever the card had a boot failure issue
“Invalid PCIe card found in the Internal Storage slot”
I tried to follow these guides on fixing the issue by editing the card, however I keep getting errors when I try to unbind or halt the card in order to edit it.
brandon@kali:/usr/share$ lspci -Dmmnn | grep LSI
0000:01:00.0 “Serial Attached SCSI controller [0107]” “Broadcom / LSI [1000]” “SAS2008 PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS-2 [Falcon] [0072]” -r03 “Dell [1028]” “6Gbps SAS HBA Adapter [1f1c]”
brandon@kali:/usr/share$ sudo lsirec 0000:01:00.0 unbind
mmap bar1: Invalid argument
Then I tried a work around for the “mmap bar1: Invalid argument” error
opened 08:44AM - 24 Jun 19 UTC
When running lsirec on linux kernel 4.5 or higher the program gives the error: mmap bar1: Invalid argument. This is due...
but nothing is fixing my issued can anyone offer any advice?

First of all, you need to make sure you have root permissions to be able to issue these commands. Type: sudo su
Supply your password on request.
Then try again with the original solution.

Ok, back to square 1 then:
disconnect all drives (if you haven’t already) and move it over to a different slot.
perform the mmap workaround you’ve found (as root, edit the required file, save it, then reboot)
boot with a different kernel, <4.5, SysrescueCD 6.0.6 has kernel 4.19 (current version is 7.0.1, which has kernel 5.4, so unusable)
HTH!
ok I couldn’t get sysrescuecd working properly on my dell optiplex but that’s besides the point.
I installed ubuntu 16.04.7 wit kernal 4.4

I edited grub / updated grub / restarted the box
and it worked!
