Hi,

I tried to passthru my IBM 1015 (crossflashed to LSI) to a virtual machine.

I used "hostpci0: 02:00.0" entry and enabled iommu in grub.

When starting the virtual machine I can see the Bios of the LSI controller but it prints an error that the card's bios couldn't be installed properly.

Code:
Unable to load LSI Logic Corp MPT BIOS
   MRT BIOS Fault 02h encountered at adapter PCI (XXh, XXh,XXh)
   Fusion-MPT Firmware fault code 0706h
 
Hi,

after a lot of reading and trying I can report, that the error occurs with firmware P15 of the M1015/LSI 2108 after flashing P17 everything seems okay (MPT Bios loading)
