Aha! That looks to be the problem. Looking at the initrd generated by a simple:
# make install
for the kernel ... I see no "mpt" drivers of any kind!.
The failure mode is very, very odd though. Shouldn't I have got a "can't mount root" error?
/me goes to find how to tell Dracut to add the mpt3sas module to the initrd.
Thanks
