Charlie links to my aoe-kmod package there though [1], which provides
this for at least RHEL 5 and 6. I've also got aoetools and cec packages
in that repo, so all those bits are just a yum install away once you've
configured the repo [2].

I've also notified Coraid about the kmod, but have had nothing back.

Of course, it would be nicer to have this stuff supported directly by
RedHat, as Charlie is suggesting.

Cheers,
Gavin
