This has been working fine, but now it crashes. The pegasus stays on (Blue led) but no connection via my Corningcable. On ly by disconnecting power, and the reconnect power will the Macmini find the drive.

On my other system iMac 27, the update went smooth, so this bug is unexpected.

 

Kind regards

Hi Palle,

I have reproduced the issue in the lab and will be filing a ticket with the dev team.

Till this Pegasus 2 issue is fixed, please uninstall the new utuility and load the release that came before it.

Hi Palle,

I was able to duplicate the crash with the 6.2.13 driver, but after I updated to the 6.2.17 driver everything seems to be working.

Please update the M1 Pegasus driver to 6.2.17.

Hi again

I did what you suggested but it still crashes. I attach the report as .TXT

 OOpss it seems txt extension is not allowed. What do I do then. I can save it in a different format (using BBE)

Hi Palle,

Please try zipping it. I'm not positive this will work, but it's worth a try.

No it seems it was not accepted. If you have another manner I can send you the txt file let me know

Hi Palle,

It appears that you can upload jpeg files, please change the extention to .jpg and see if you can upload the file.

Hi Palle,

This may be difficult to solve in the forum.

Could you open the system profiler and go to the extentions tab and scroll down till you find the promise STEX kext and verify the driver version that's loaded?

Palle Jensen posted this 22 October 2021

I guess this becomes too complex for me, I run MacOS in danish version so I am not sure what your suggestion translates to in the Danish version of macos.

Hi Palle,

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.

Note the extensions tab takes a while to load.

The PromiseSTEX driver that's loaded should be version 6.2.17.

 

Palle Jensen posted this 23 October 2021

That is so true. I found it finally, but the 6.2.17 is NOT loaded! How do i make it load?

R P posted this 25 October 2021

Hi Palle,

I have noticed that sometimes a driver I just installed does not load. If that's the case I just load it manually.

Open a terminal and try the following...

sudo kextload /Library/Extensions/PromiseSTEX.kext

You can verify from the terminal with this command.

kextstat | grep promise

This will only show loaded drivers. What you should see will look like this...

promise@Promises-Mac-mini ~ % kextstat | grep promise
Executing: /usr/bin/kmutil showloaded
