If you would like to install Linux Debian onto drives attached to SSD7540 controller,

please perform the following operations:

After you attach your NVMe SSD to SSD7540 controller, you can use SSD7540 EFI

Utility to configure your NVMe SSD as RAID arrays, or just use them as single disks.

Before installation, you must remove all the NVMe SSD, which are not physically

attached to SSD7540 controller, from your system.

Note

SSD7540 only support EFI boot. If you have other SCSI adapters installed, you must

make sure the SSD7540 controller EFI will be loaded firstly. If not, try to move it to

another PCI slot. Otherwise you may be unable to boot up your system.

In your system EFI SETUP menu, change Boot Sequence in such a way that the system

will first boot from EFI CDROM, and then from SSD7540 RAID. Refer to your

motherboard EFI manual to see how to set boot sequence.

If your EFI settings do not support such a boot sequence, you can first set it to boot from

EFI CDROM. After you finish installation, set SSD7540 RAID as the first boot device to

boot up the system.

1. Set UEFI setting with SuperMicro X11DPi-NT motherboard as an example:

Set 'Boot mode select' to 'UEFI';
