Dell PERC H750

I have a machine with a Dell PERC H750 raid card. I'd like to get it working under NetBSD. When FreeBSD added support to their driver (mrsas) it looks like they did it with these three patches: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/sys/dev/mrsas?id=2909aab4cfc296bcf83fa3e87ed41ed1f4244fea

missing memory with uefi

Hi, I have a new Dell PowerEdge 440 that I was installing a few month old 8.0_STABLE on. For the first time I tried setting it up as a UEFI system and everything seems to have worked OK _except_ that it seems to be significantly under-reporting the amount of physical memory - the system has

Are SAS tape drives supported in NetBSD? I have an LSI MegaRAID SAS card with an HP LTO5 SAS drive attached. The card's WebBIOS can see the tape attached and NetBSD can see the LSI card but NetBSD show no evidence of seeing the tape drive (not even as an unconfigured device). cheers mark
