The setup: Intel SE7520BD2(DDR) motherboard, SC5275-E chassis, and AXX6SCSIDB hotswap cage upgrade, LSI 20320 SCSI adapter. Running FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE GENERIC kernel.
During boot, I get these messages:
After another short delay, the boot continues normally. Other complaints about the "xpt_config" message have to do with firewire (which this board does not have) or USB (which I completely disabled in BIOS).
boot -v and dmesg yield this:
This goes on until
mpt0:0:0:0 and 0:1:0 are two IBM/Hitachi 36GB drives at da0 and da1. Device 0:6:0 seems to be the hotswap controller. Buried deep in the motherboard's TPS is a hint that in order for the HSC to work, a "Management Module" must be installed. Apart from the annoying two minute delay every time a bus rescan occurs, everything seems to be working fine.
So, while I'm hunting down a Management Module, is there any way to get the kernel to ignore Device 6? I tried device.hints but the syntax doesn't seem to support this. The SCSI adapter BIOS options can disable the POST-time scan for a particular device but can't disable it completely. Any suggestions are appreciated.
