AFAIK Perc H 200 should be supported by mps(4) which wasn't merged to stable/8 
until after 8.2.

Unfortunately the latest official snapshots were before the driver was merged.  
You could try first just to boot on the curent / FreeBSD 9 snapshots and see if 
it sees your disks at all.

You can get the snapshot from 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/201102/ .

I don't think there are any other snapshot services still running... so 
(assuming mps(4) actually works with H200) you need to make a build of stable/8 
yourself - the simplest approach is probably to PXE boot the servers and 
install by hand... but that's of course not a trivial thing if you never tried 
it before.

I suspect there will be new official snapshots at some point, but I don't know 
when...
