Flashing Controller fails

Put sas3flash.efi and firmware on a USB thumbdrive.
Boot to BIOS/Boot Menu and select UEFI Shell.
Once in shell:

  • map to list filesystems
  • fs0: to go to the first device, which hopefully is the thumbdrive
  • dir to list content
  • repeat above two steps until you find the thumbdrive fs1: etc.
  • flash according to instructions
