don't care about that one anyway. software raid == bad
to the best of my knowledge, no one has ever built a bit
of hardware that does all the things raid needs to do in
hardware. i don't think anyone has even implemented the
entire hot path in hardware. there's always a processor and
firmware. the only argument is where it runs.
fair enough. and as soon as one completed the hardware, and shipped
it, one would find that it was buggy and be unable to patch it, as it
was in hardware :)
I'm still having the same two problems after pulling geoff's updates:
in vmware ( fusion ) i get the "aux/vga: vgactlw: <linear 0x3e80000
0x0>: unknown vmware id 0740
error, and on my physical machine, my sata disks are still not showing
up
... even though all of these things work during installation from the
cd. ( i'm using a cd from a couple of days ago )
