Hi Martin,

I booted from the LiveCD, modified the kernel Grub entry to -s and succeeded to 
get to single user mode. I tried to remove the SUNWlsimega driver with "pkgrm 
SUNWlsimega" but this failed.
So I modified the /etc/driver_aliases so that lsimega entries are as follows to 
match the entries that are in my tweaked SUNWlsimega driver.

lsimega "pci1000,408.1000.2"            * in standard driver
lsimega "pci1028,13.1028.16c"
lsimega "pci1028,13.1028.16d"
lsimega "pci1000,408.1028.2"  
lsimega "pci1000,407.1000.532"       * in standard driver
lsimega "pci1028,13"                        * in standard driver
lsimega "pci1000,407"                      * in standard driver
lsimega "pci1000,408"                      * in standard driver
lsimega "pci1000,409"
lsimega "pci1000,409.1000.3008"
lsimega "pci1000,409.1000.3008.a"
lsimega "pci1000,1960"                     * in standard driver
lsimega "pci1001,1965"

Correspond to the ids of the devices below, Windows uses a common driver for 
all these devices. The Sun SUNWlsimega VERSION:  11.10.0,REV=2005.09.15.00.24 
works well with the LSI MegaRAID SATA 8X controller and has been for nearly two 
years.

Intel(R) RAID Controller SRCU41L, SRCZCRX, SROMBU42E, SRCS16, SRCU42E, SRCU42X

MegaRAID Elite 1600, 1650/1700 RAID Controller Driver
MegaRAID Enterprise 1200, 1500, 1600, 1700 RAID Controller Driver
MegaRAID i4 IDE RAID Controller
MegaRAID SCSI 320-1, 320-2 RAID Controller Driver
MegaRAID i4133 RAID Controller Driver
MegaRAID SCSI 320-0, 320-0X,320-2X, 320-4X RAID Controller Driver
HP NetRAID-1M, NETRAID-2M RAID Controller Driver
MegaRAID PCI Express(TM) ROMB
MegaRAID SATA 150-4, 150-6, 300-4X, 300-8X, 300-8XLP RAID Controller


My problem is how can I get the system to rescan the hardware and recognise my 
LSI controller.
I tried devfsadm but without success. 

I suppose an alternative approach would be to add the additional pci 
identifiers to the SUNWlsimega Version 11.11,Rev=2008.10.30.20.37 driver for 
inclusion in the next LiveCD release. I have noted that the lsimega binaries in 
Version 11.11 are bigger than those in Version 11.10. It would also increase 
the amount of hardware supported by OpenSolaris.
