I just bought one also with RedHat Linux 7.0 factory installed and the Perc
3/Di configured as a 2 disk mirror.  4.3-RELEASE didn't see the aac device
until I patched  /usr/src/sys/dev/aac/aac_pci.c as shown below.  I got the
info from the Linux aacraid driver.  To actually install I had to fix up a
new kernel on the kern.flp diskette and put a different kernel.GENERIC in
the bin.* distribution (maybe there's an easier way).

However, I didn't get the afacli utility working correctly...
