Hi, Morten.

According to your dmesg output, yours are Dell PERC 5/i adapters and doing RAID.
This configuration is well supported by mfi driver, AFAIK.

mfi0: <Dell PERC 5/i> mem 0xd80f0000-0xd80fffff,0xfc4e0000-0xfc4fffff
irq 78 at device 14.0 on pci2


Mine is a LSI Logic SAS 5/i (no RAID) controller, which is supported
by the mpt driver,
wich seems to need some fixing.

mpt0: <LSILogic SAS Adapter> port 0xec00-0xecff mem
0xfc4fc000-0xfc4fffff,0xfc4e0000-0xfc4effff irq 64 at device 8.0 on
pci2
