yes, you are missing the bootloader:
Optional: Boot Images

Note: flashing these can add up to 2 minutes to server boot time if you have a lot of drives. Be sure you need them!
If you need to boot from drives connected to this adapter, you'll need to flash a boot image to it. Otherwise, skip it. This is what gives you the "press blahblah to enter the LSI boot configuration utility" text when the server boots. To flash the regular BIOS boot image:


flashboot /root/Bootloaders/mptsas2.rom


If you want to UEFI boot from drives connected to this adapter, you need to flash the UEFI boot image (the card can have both UEFI and BIOS boot images flashed):


flashboot /root/Bootloaders/x64sas2.rom


You can now ditch the live images and boot back into your normal system.
Hope it works for you.
