The last discussion I've heard on the subject on lkml said that
software raid is a much better idea, since (a) hardware raid is just
software implemented on the card itself

A brand new IBM xSeries 346, with builtin Raid-1 controller (Serveraid).
The relevant kernel module is called ips. However, for Debian Sarge,
neither 2.4 nor 2.6, neither 32 bit nor 64 properly detect it.
I'm about to install FC3 just to see what other distros make of it. I

FC3 has ServerRAID support in the stock (2.6.9.xxx) kernel.
AFAIK RHEL3 has also has full support for this controller.
