FreeBSD 5.4 and PERC 5i controller

I am trying to install an Endace DAG card for traffic capture on a new machine 
with 8 drives installed using a PERC 5i controller.  Due to support limitations 
for the DAG software, I have to install FreeBSD 5.4 on this machine.

However, the install CD does not see any drives at all - my guess is FreeBSD 5.4 
has no drivers for the PERC 5i controller.  Does anyone know a workaround for 
this?  Is there a PERC 5i driver available for FreeBSD 5.4?  TIA for your responses.
