The Adapter List screen displays a scrolling list of up to 256 SAS controllers in the system, and
provides information about each of them.
Use the arrow keys to select a SAS controller, and then press Enter to view and modify the
selected SAS controller's properties.
The status of each adapter may be Enabled or Disabled. You can view and modify the SAS
controller settings for adapters in either status. Use the Boot Support setting in the Adapter
Properties screen to change the status of this setting. The EFI Driver must reconnect for a new
Boot Support setting to take effect; this occurs automatically when you exit drvcfg.
The information fields on the Adapter List Screen are as follows:

PCI Bus
PCI Dev
PCI Fnc
FW Revision
