It is possible that the device you added has been assigned option ROM and/or I/O space at the
expense of some other device. If this is the case, the device you added does not appear in the list
but the original device does. This depends on the position of each device in the probe order.
Decide whether you need to configure option ROM or I/O space allocation, for one of the
following reasons.
■
Error messages inform you that a device that you wish boot from has not been allocated
option ROM and/or I/O space.
■
You wish to be able to run a configuration utility such as the LSI RAID utility on a device
that has not been allocated option ROM.
■
(Optional) You wish to make the error messages go away.
Note –
There is no need to configure option ROM or I/O space allocation simply because of
these messages, unless you require the functionality provided by the option ROM and the
I/O space.
