I'm hitting a wall for the last couple days and have tried and read everything possible and could really use some help please.
Host:
ESXi 7.0u3
VM:
Sata Controller 0
- Attach TinyCore VMDK to this controller at 0:0
PCI Passthrough:
- LSI9211-8i (Currently only have 4 disks attached out of 8 possible)
I do everything to get the build (broadwellnk-7.1.0-42661) up and running. Once DSM starts, it is showing my drives as 2,3,4,5 instead of 1,2,3,4.
SataPortMap: "1"
DiskIdxMap: "0F"
I have tried adding SasIdxMap: 0 and doesn't change anything. I have tried changing the DiskIdxMap and it doesn't change it either. Whatever number I put in the SataPortMap, then an equal number of starting drives are taken. Example, if I change it to 2, then Disk 1 and 2 are empty and my Disks start at 3. If I remove SataPortMap or put it = 0, then my DSM won't load.
Goal: My Drives passed through on my LSI9211-8i to be disks 1-8 and the loader to be hidden.
I know this is probably something simple but I am hitting my head against a wall trying to solve this for my OCD brain. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
