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 kernel= s = (x < 9) there is no driver for these adapters. On 2.6.x (x >=3D 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 Debia= n = Sarge? -- = Oliver K=F6nig Windfinder.com Knorrstr. 24 Hinterhaus 24106 Kiel Germany phone +49 431-8008643 VoIP +49 1801-7775558229 fax +49 431-8008644 Mobile +49 177-4933362 oliver@windfinder.com www.windfinder.com _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list Linux-PowerEdge@dell.com http://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
