I got a picture of the failed boot at

The PCI-MSI line is probably indicative. Can you try booting with:
mptbase.mpt_msi_enable_sas=0
and also send us an lspci -v so we can update the blacklist?
is that disabling SAS for this system? if so, that's the wrong thing
to do
(the drives are SAS)
it only disable MSI with that mptsas.
and mptsas will use ioapic routing.
can you post whole bootlog?
unfortunantly it's booting from CD and the only drives in the
system are
the ones that are not being accessed.
i mean with kernel before 2.6.24..
Ok, attached.
so your lsi 1068 is under 8132... need to double check if that chip
really support MSI.

I don't understand the section I snipped from the message above
do you have chance to try current tip/master
http://people.redhat.com/mingo/tip.git/readme.txt
or 2.6.29-rcX
plus following patch?
I will see about trying this.
or can you check if there is update fw for your LSI card?
this is more work, I'll look into that as well.

[PATCH] mpt: fix enable lsi sas to use msi as default
Impact: fix bug
the third param in module_param(,,) is perm instead of default value.
we still need to assign default at first.
