HP ProLiant ML110 G7: No raid driver for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS for embedded RAID Controller B110i

[Georg E. Paulusberger]

Although the ProLiant ML110 G7 is listed by Canonical as being support by Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
there is simply no driver for this widely used HP raid controller B110i.

They should simply take it off the support list for 12.04 LTS, because no one buying this
HP server will check every hardware component before he/she buys it!!!

Either it's fully support, i.e. all commonly used configurations of this server or Canonical
should just take it off their more or less reliable support list!!!

Thanks for the trouble you caused me!

This server is certified with enable the legacy AHCI mode enabled in RBSU for this controller. Reason is this controller needs the driver which is HP proprietary not open sourced. As if today HP does not build this driver for Ubuntu.
