It seems that RELENG_7 carries a newer version of driver, so I guess the
problem should have been resolved. Part of changes were MFC'ed 5 months
ago to RELENG_6, so you may also want to try a RELENG_6 snapshot from:
http://www.freebsd.org/snapshots/
In order to verify if it resolves your problem. Let us know if the
problem still persists.

Hi,
Pardon me if I seem ignorant here but I am new to the list and
procedures of Freebsd...
I've recently purchased a bunch of new supermicro servers with 3ware
9650 SATA RAID controllers in them. The freebsd 6.2 install is
painstaking because the driver source in Freebsd is not current with the
latest twa driver source from 3Ware. As a result, I have had to build
custom install CD's with the driver on them so that I can manually load
them in the boot loader. It's a pain. I don't know if the same issue
exists in Freebsd 7 but some of us are not going to want to move our
production environments to Freebsd 7 for a while...
What is the procedure for getting the latest twa source patched into the
Freebsd 6.2 source tree? It's freely available from 3Ware here and
takes all of 45 seconds to patch in:
