My issues were solved by using the directions here: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=12767.msg124393#msg124393 despite what was stated in this thread before about simply flashing the 9240-8i firmware and the drives would allow for passthrough. I can see all the drives...

I can configure them as jbod, however then I dont see them under the controller (which is not what I expected... I Was expecting to see them under the controller and get SMART passthrough). If I leave them unconfigured I cannot see them in the OS.

I flashed through the windows MDM utility, but the cards are not showing me any drives in linux... Using Linux 3.1.1 under fedora

We're you able to see the drives in linux? Does the card need to be configured in any way? (assuming it is already flashed to the 9240-8i firmware

I've recently purchased a sandy bridge based server (X9SCA-F-O and the Xeon 1230) and paired that up with two of the M1015. I'm a Linux user who is coming from 1068E based cards (USAS-L8i, heres my post on fitting the supermicro UIO in normal slots http://blog.agdunn.net/?p=391). I got past...
