You can try to rebuild the 2009.06 microroot on the USB image to add the mpt_sas driver. There are some articles with instructions on how to do that. With b134 and 24 disks, I have had it break on the install because it exhausted the number of inodes for all the disks/partitions on the ramdisk. The workaround was to install with fewer disks attached.
Giovanni: Sorry, that suggestion is WRONG. mpt_sas(7d) is a SCSAv3 hba driver. The changes to enable SCSAv3 went into build 118, along with mpt_sas(7d). You cannot use 2009.06 with an mpt_sas(7d) hba. You must upgrade to a build following 118. Milosz: I am interested in seeing your panic stack from a build 134 installation. James C.
