OK trying it out without a card just to see if building the driver still works but running into this?

using: snuf/iomemory-vsl
copied this header into the dirrectory : pve-headers_5.2-2_all.deb (not sure about this step? )

root@pveD1541:~/iomemory-vsl# sudo dpkg-buildpackage

I'm no proxmox expert but generally this means you're missing the linux-headers package - this is a subset of the kernel source and usually needed to build any kernel modules against it. `aptitude install linux-headers-amd64` or whatever the proxmox equivalent is (proxmox might well use a different name) should install this package if it's possible.

Edit: a wee google says the proxmox package is called `pve-headers`.

You are no proxmox pro and i am no linux pro :)

Think I am getting somewhere?

Using : snuf/iomemory-vsl

Code:
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y
apt-get install dpkg-buildpackage
apt-get install pve-headers
apt-get install pve-headers-4.15.18-3-pve

git clone https://github.com/snuf/iomemory-vsl
cd iomemory-vsl/
git checkout next_generation
sudo cp -r iomemory-vsl/root/usr/src/iomemory-vsl-3.2.15 /usr/src/
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/dkms/iomemory-vsl/3.2.15/build
sudo ln -s /usr/src/iomemory-vsl-3.2.15 /var/lib/dkms/iomemory-vsl/3.2.15/source
sudo dkms build -m iomemory-vsl -v 3.2.15
sudo dkms install -m iomemory-vsl -v 3.2.15
sudo modprobe iomemory-vsl
Need to figure out how to install utils now and see if I actually buy a card :)

EDIT:

Code:
%%%%copy the sandisk/WD original utilities to folder first using WinSCP

sudo dpkg -i /root/iomemory-vsl/utilities/fio-common-3.2.15.1700-1.0_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i /root/iomemory-vsl/utilities/fio-preinstall-3.2.15.1700-1.0_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i /root/iomemory-vsl/utilities/fio-util-3.2.15.1700-1.0_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i /root/iomemory-vsl/utilities/fio-sysvinit-3.2.15.1700-1.0_all.deb

i mean the fans of the HP dl380e
Got an 1.2tb iodrive2 if the HP iLO cant verify its HP Branded firmware the iLO of the HP Server just spins the fans on full speed, cant PWM.

You can unzip the HP and Dell drivers, look at the manifest file and move your model into the manifest for the HP driver and re-zip.

So there is no way in cross flashing the Firmware itself right?

There is, I just told you how to do it. You need to update the manifest with the model info for your card.
ah fine thanks a lot then was confused by the "driver" part but forgot i got firmware/driver bundled here sorry.
would guess the "manifest" is in the "info" file n i gotta seach up the "hp codename" then.

Anyways thanks a lot for your help!

This thread has been amazing. I've gotten further than ever before using Proxmox 5.3-6, but I seem to be stuck. I can't seem to get the 4.3.4 official version to build on kernel 4.15-0-43-generic. It seems like there's an issue with missing the x86_64_cc73_libkfio.o. Not sure if you've installed GCC 7.3.0 yet.

@lowfat is this the version you're using?

I have a PX600-1300 and it just seems to be fighting me the entire time.

I see it registered as a PCI device, so there's at least that.

I have everything up to date including PVE which is 5.3.7 but GCC is showing "gcc (Debian 6.3.0-18+deb9u1) 6.3.0 20170516"

Have you tried building w/ the snuf drivers? gcc 7.3 · Issue #12 · snuf/iomemory-vsl

Someone there mentions that when using GCC 7.3 they also had a similar issue.

Yessir. I might need to make some changes to the makefile however, since it does a clean before the compile. Renaming the library from 71 to 73 doesn't work as expected because the object file gets deleted before the compiler runs.

Thanks for the reply Lowfat. I appreciate it!
