/>I'm running 7.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE #0: Sat Dec 27
03:44:52 EST 2008 AMD on a Dell 2850 Poweredge with the defaut LSI/PERC
4 and AMR kernel devices and I'm not seeing any timeouts at all. Maybe
someone knows if something significant in those device files changed
from 7.0 to 7.1? I don't think the Linux drivers are a viable option.
But using 7.1 PRE seems to work just fine, here.

I have however noticed that the events only occur at specific times. So far I
have noticed them only at boot time just after dmesg identifies the adapter and
also whenever I try to install/upgrade a port.
It doesn't matter what port it is but here is an example (seen as I'm having
trouble with the mysql port not compiling but that's for a different thread)
# make
===> Extracting for mysql-client-5.0.75
=> MD5 Checksum OK for mysql-5.0.75.tar.gz.
=> SHA256 Checksum OK for mysql-5.0.75.tar.gz.
#######Long pause here of >30 seconds with the mpt0 errors being logged
===> Patching for mysql-client-5.0.75
