*Many* thanks to mjacob for his mpt driver improvements.  I was able to 
boot 7.0-CURRENT-SNAP013-amd64-disc1.iso (3/10/2006 snapshot) from CD 
on my X4100 and install from scratch directly to a SAS disk in slot 0.  
Booted perfectly.  Did a csup at ~3/30/2006 15:17, buildworld/kernel, 
installkernel/world, all is still good.

Now I get to go back and do it all again with two drives in a hardware 
RAID 1.  Silly metadata.
