Ok thanks.

I did some homework on patching, and to my own surprice, the altered 
patch i have now even compiles on 9.0-RELEASE.  :D
only the param.h failed in the end, and i can not figure out why.

So i hope the change in that file is not that important.
I am running it now on a Supermicro 3U storage server with a few sata 
disk in it, with a single LSI 9211-8i card connected the the backplane.

It seems to do the job.
The driver coming with 9.0 had some trouble when i remirror some drives, 
i try that tomorrow.

i have put the patch here http://xs4all.nl/~doub/mps.patch maybe you can 
use it, maybe not.

my dmesg for what is worth
