Detailed newcomers' guide to crossflashing LSI 9211/9300/9305/9311/9400/94xx HBA and variants

Hello All

First post here :)

I have a problem with flashing Dell H200. I read this manual multiple times but either I'm missing something or my english is not good enough to catch something important. Which image from zip file in tutorial i should use as first step? It's stated to use 6gbpsas.fw, but when I do this I'm getting IR mode instead of IT mode. Can someone please tell me filenames in which order i should flash - my card - Dell H200 - LSI 9211-8i ?

Thank You in advance!

OK case solved. I need to read more careful for the future.
If for someone else is still not clear - use only fw files from root directory of zip files...
For Dell H200:
1)sas2flash.efi -o -e 7
2)sas2flash.efi -o -f H200A.fw
3)sas2flash.efi -o -f 6gbpsas.fw
4)sas2flash.efi -o -f 2118p7.bin (chose yes when asked)
5)sas2flash_p19.efi -o -f 2118it.bin

can someone fix the thread's inside

1. Download from Github Tianocore the precompiled UEFI version 1 Shell: Shell_Full.efi. (Only v1 is applicable, later versions are not compatible with the flash tool and end up with the message: “InitShellApp: Application not started from Shell”.)

the file is 404 where else to dl ? thx

Does your system not have an EFI shell in ROM? If so, you can skip that part.
