Ok, wiped the src tree, re-cvs'd out the RELENG_7, rebuild world and kernel
and reinstalled (nice fast machine eh?)

Anyway, no change:

dbms# uname -v
FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #1: Wed Jun 18 14:43:29 CDT 2008 karl at dbms.denninger.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC 

dbms# megacli -adpCount
                                     

Controller Count: 0. 

dbms# megacli -Cfgdsply -a0
                                     
Failed to get ControllerId List.
Failed to get CpController object.

Still no joy

dbms# kldstat
Id Refs Address    Size     Name
 1   17 0xc0400000 943140   kernel
 2    1 0xc0d44000 6a2c4    acpi.ko
 3    1 0xc5534000 7000     linprocfs.ko
 4    3 0xc553b000 22000    linux.ko
 5    1 0xc5585000 3000     linsysfs.ko
 6    1 0xc7a34000 3000     daemon_saver.ko
 7    1 0xc7c2d000 2000     mfi_linux.ko

Says I got the proper KLDs loaded.

dbms# mount
/dev/mfid0s1a on / (ufs, local, soft-updates)
devfs on /dev (devfs, local)
/dev/mfid0s1e on /dbms (ufs, local, soft-updates)
/dev/mfid0s1d on /usr (ufs, local, soft-updates)
linprocfs on /usr/compat/linux/proc (linprocfs, local)
linsysfs on /usr/compat/linux/sys (linsysfs, local)

The two linux "look-sees" are there.

So it looks like all the pre-reqs are there, but it still doesn't work.

Here's the ID on the card and volume:

mfi0: 524 (267116948s/0x0020/0) - Adapter ticks 267116948 elapsed 61s: Time established as 06/18/08 15:09:08; (61 seconds since power on)
mfid0: <MFI Logical Disk> on mfi0
mfid0: 237464MB (486326272 sectors) RAID volume '' is optimal

What am I missing?
