My LSI SAS 9211-8i should arrive Monday or Tuesday. I bought the cable-less version, opting instead to save a few $ and buy Adaptec 2247000-R SAS to SATA cables. My rig will be based off of fairly new kit, so it should be interesting to see how 2009.06 deals with it all :) As far as I recall, the chip on that card is supported with the mpt_sas(7d) driver, not the mp(7d) driver. It won't, however, be detected by a 2009.06 installation, since that was based on build snv_111b, and the mpt_sas driver wasn't introduced until build snv_118. So you could either wait until 2010.$spring comes out, or start using the /dev repo instead.

Or manually load the driver onto the older version of OSOL :)
Well yes, you could do that, then you'd have to watch your system fail to load the module because it depends on changes that also went into snv_118 in other modules. Or it might just panic. Either way, you're not going to be successful in trying this option. James C.
