[OpenIndiana-discuss] Unable to load RAID driver

[Rich]

If you need them, I have all revisions between 11 and 15 inclusive, as
well as some others, so feel free to request from me off-list if you
think a particular version will help.

That said, I don't think specific firmware revisions will help - it
sounds like either the firmware on it isn't flashed correctly, or the
config data on it is mangled, or the mpt_sas driver is expecting
something to be true on IL/OI that isn't, but the mpt_sas drivers on
other OSes know how to deal with this.
