[solved] Intel I217V Controller driver not available

Post by alisarwar »

I just got an intel H87 Motherboard with I217V Ethernet Controller. But it is not detected during the install of the latest stable build.

After a bit of searching i found out that intel already has a driver for FreeBSD 9.x and is available at the following link

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail ... d&lang=eng

and there are instructions on how to compile and then configure it in FreeBSD 9.x. Can I do it the same way in N4F latest build?

the support will be in freebsd 9.2 which is scheduled for the end of the month.
then you will have to wait for a nas4free 9.2 release.

if you do a full install you can however follow the instructions.
Nas4Free 11.1.0.4.4517. Supermicro X10SLL-F, 16gb ECC, i3 4130, IBM M1015 with IT firmware. 4x 3tb WD Red, 4x 2TB Samsung F4, both GEOM AES 256 encrypted.
