I have ordered the following server from Dell:

PowerEdge T610
	Tower Chassis for Up to Eight 3.5-Inch Hard Drives
	No Operating System
	Intel Xeon E5504, 2.0Ghz, 4M Cache, 800MHz Max Mem
	6GB Memory (3x2GB), 1333MHz Dual Ranked UDIMMs for 1 Processor, Optimi=
zed
	Embedded Broadcom=AE NetXtreme II 5709 Gigabit Ethernet NIC
	PERC 6/i SAS RAID Controller, 2x4 Connectors, Internal, PCIe, 256MB Ca=
che
		(4) 250GB 7.2K RPM SATA 3.5" Hot Plug Hard Drive
		RAID 6 for PERC 6/i Controller
	DVD-ROM, SATA, Internal
	Electronic System Documentation, OpenManage DVD Kit with DMC

I wish to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 on this using hardware r=
aid-6.
I have four 250 GB drives and four additional hot swap bays for future =
expansion.

What do I need to do this?  Instructions? Drivers? 32 vs 64 bit?

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks

Harold
