Permanently disabling alarm on Intel RAID controller ...

[Marc G. Fournier]

oh, most cool ... but it doesn't seem to work, or I'm doing it wrong:

pluto# /usr/sbin/storcon
Error: Initialization failed ! (Device driver not loaded ?)


there doesn't seem to be any instructions for using it, beyond doing the
above, and the iir driver is definitely loaded:

pluto# grep iir /var/run/dmesg.boot
iir0: <Intel Integrated RAID Controller> mem 0xfc8f0000-0xfc8f3fff irq 2 at device 9.0 on pci1
pass0 at iir0 bus 1 target 6 lun 0
da0 at iir0 bus 2 target 0 lun 0

so close ... is there maybe a arg I need to type, or ... ?

I'm running 4.9-STABLE updated to Jan 28th, while the driver that comes
with the .zip file appears to be back to '02 (ie. not updated recently?
*grin*)

tried this ... when we reboot the machine ... it goes quiet while in
storcon, but once we boot to the OS, it resumes :(
