Did these updated modules work with HostRAID enabled? I haven't been sucessful
in compiling them yet, which version of SuSE do you have?

Strangely all the pre-compiled modules are for SuSE 8.0 and 8.2. There is one
for 9.0, but it still has a 2.4 kernel. SuSE have released an update for SLES9,
but of course its a different kernel variant and doesen't work with SL9.2 :-(.
>>Has anyone come across a solution? Is there a driver I don't know of?
>>Is there a way of disabling hostRAID?
Did you find an answer to this? I have searched and searched the BIOS, the
technical docs, and the web and have no solutions.
