[OmniOS-discuss] LSI3108

[Fábio Rabelo]

OK, reading the manual for the controller ...

I do not found anything like "passthru"

What I did found was a fuction called "expose Hard Disk to Host" ...

And, looks like is is what I need ....

Coming back when I have the card in my hands ...

Thanks again ....
