Hi,

I don’t have too much experience and this error message is new to me, but there was a similar question in the [forum](https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/430083-Installing-OpenSUSE-11-2-on-a-SunFire-X4140). Have you seen that? Would this solve your problem? The solution in that case was

[QUOTE]Solution: The server had PCI scanning disabled in the BIOS, so the RAID controller didn’t appear and couldn’t be configured.

I looked for PCIPnP and then ‘Scanning OPROM on PCI-E slotN’ - and just enabled all the slots.

The LSI controller prompt appeared on a reboot and I was able to configure a RAID and the installation went smoothly. [/QUOTE]
