Adaptec SCSI RAID 2010S/2015S Installation Guide
After updating the Adaptec controller firmware or BIOS and restarting, the controller
does not respond.
The update may have been unsuccessful. Reset the NVRAM to the
default settings and reconfigure the ZCR. To reset the NVRAM, refer
to Appendix C.
You want the system to boot from a drive that is not attached to an Adaptec ZCR
controller. However, during startup, the controller BIOS message appears first,
indicating that a drive attached to an Adaptec ZCR controller will be the boot drive.
Use SMOR to disable Boot Enable for that controller. This prevents
the Adaptec ZCR controller from being used as the boot controller
for the system.
The Adaptec controller BIOS reports a drive as a disk instead of a drive.
This condition can occur if SMOR is used to disable Boot Enable. If
you require access to disk drives connected to the Adaptec ZCR
controller during the boot process, set Bootable Devices to Normal.
A firmware upgrade is unsuccessful, causing the Adaptec ZCR controller to hang the
system.
You can temporarily disable the firmware, BIOS, and SMOR and
then replace them using the Flash Mode 0 procedure. For details,
refer to Appendix C.
After an upgrade of the controller BIOS only, pressing Ctrl+A at the system prompt
displays the message
Card not configurable.
Upgrade SMOR using the Flash Mode 0 procedure. For details, refer
to Appendix C.
The floppy disk drive cannot be accessed after installing an Adaptec ZCR controller.
Use SMOR to enable the EBDA Relocation option. For details, refer
to Configuring the Controller to Boot from Channel 1 on page 2-8.
