hi,

I have two servers with AMI megaraid.
They both runnig 2.6.11.*

I want to upgrade to 2.6.18. The problem is: the driver does not work
anymore.

If I try the new driver, the kernel freezes after I see a stack trace
dump. It is OK, I read somewhere that I should not use this new one as
it does not support my old cards.

However the legacy megaraid drivers does not work either. I get
unknown-block-device error when the kernel tries to mount sdaX.
I do not even see the megaraid driver coming up! no detecting messages like
in 2.6.11

This page: http://linux.dell.com/storage.shtml#megaraid lead me to this
list.

I attach my kernel config file too (for 2.6.18).

Thanks in advance. Ask for more info if needed.
