Just to let you know there is now a new mfi driver at the LSI site 
supporting the new dual core 9265 adapters that were released on CeBIT.
However the new boards does not seem to be avaialble yet.

If you need help with testing, please let me know, I have access to most 
of the lsi adapters and lots of Supermicro hardware.
