Subject: Raid1 on Dell Poweredge with Perc4e/Di Raid Controller running Debian Sarge (3.1)
Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2005 10:30:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200504211030.56948.oliver@windfinder.com> (raw)

Hello,
I would like to use Raid1 on the Dell Poweredge with Perc4e/Di Raid Controller 
and two 2 73 GB drives running Debian Sarge (3.1).

At http://linux.dell.com/storage.shtml I read that the Powerege 2850 Perc4e/Di 
requires megaraid2 driver 2.00.3 or higher on 2.4.x kernel. On 2.6.x kernels 
(x < 9) there is no driver for these adapters. On 2.6.x (x >= 9) use the 
'megaraid_mbox' and 'megaraid_mm' drivers.

Problem: The Debian Installers offers only to install:

- 2.4.x (which seems to be okay for the raid) OR 
- 2.6.8 (which would not allow the use of the Raid)

Solution:
Is there a megaraid driver for the 2.6.8 kernel? If so, where?

If not, should I use 2.4.x kernel or try to install a 2.6.9 kernel on Debian 
Sarge?
