hi guys,
so i am planning on running proxmox as hypervisor and on top an instance of some sort of NAS operating system. Therefore i need to passthrough my SATA controller for my Disks to work properly. So i got myself an M.2 to 5x Sata Connector ASM1166 HBA controller. Then i followed this github guide to get it to work:
https://gist.github.com/mietzen/6174d04a560fa0bb35f8e752f4743382
which it did, at first. i also double checked and got this as proof of it working:root@proxmox:~# lspci -nnk | grep -A 3 ASM116601:00.0 SATA controller [0106]: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1166 Serial ATA Controller [1b21:1166] (rev 02)
Subsystem: ZyDAS Technology Corp. Device [2116:2116]
Kernel driver in use: vfio-pci
Kernel modules: ahci
root@proxmox:~#
so i started up a OMV instance on proxmox and could also select that controller for passthrough. In my OMV i also saw and used my disks. Then i had to restart proxmox and my controller is "gone". It was still shown in the Boot menu but when i tried to start my OMV conatainer it failed since the PCI card couln´t be found. Then i tried the same command from before again:
root@proxmox:~# lspci -nnk | grep -A 3 ASM1166
but got no entry at all. Then i tried lspci alone, which showed me a bunch of stuff but none of them where an ASM1166 controller. I just redid all the steps from the github page again, and it worked again. After restart it was gone, again.
the only thing being "curious" to me was the running the command:
update-initramfs -u -k allupdate-initramfs -u -k all
since it stated this:
root@proxmox:~# update-initramfs -u -k all

Could the part: No /etc/kernel/proxmox-boot-uuids found, skipping ESP sync. be the problem why it isn´t working?
Any help/ideas would be appreciated.
