** Description changed:

+ SRU justification:
+ 
+ Impact: The Serial Attached Scsi (SAS) diver for "Marvell Technology Group 
Ltd. Device 6440" is not included in the kernel. This prevents using SAS disks 
with Ubuntu jaunty.  This driver is included in a number of motherboards (in my 
case an ASAS P5N64), and is required both for installation and running Ubuntu. 
The relevant line in lspci is:
+ 08:00.0 SCSI storage controller [0100]: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Device 
[11ab:6440] (rev 02)
+ 
+ Fix: compile "mvsas" module in the linux kernel => option
+ CONFIG_SCSI_MVSAS
+ 
+ Testcase:  Installation with Marvel SAS will not detect disk without
+ changes.
