What is the exact version of both the controller and the operating
system? PERC 5/i works fine for several of my machines:
mfi0: <Dell PERC 5/i> mem 0xf80f0000-0xf80fffff,0xde4e0000-0xde4fffff
irq 78 at device 14.0 on pci2
mfi0: Megaraid SAS driver Ver 2.00
the above one is FreeBSD 6.3.
It might be that they've changed the hardware revision so it's not
supported by the old drivers, so check with pciconf -lv that you have
something like this:
mfi0@pci2:14:0: class=0x010400 card=0x1f031028 chip=0x00151028 rev=0x00
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Dell Computer Corporation'
device = 'PERC 5/i RAID Controller Integrated RAID controller'
class = mass storage
subclass = RAID
