I'm not sure I get it - when you say "once you've installed" - it seems I'm unable to install the kernel without first having some disk space available - but since the installer can't see my 3ware IDE RAID controller, I don't have any disk space to give it. (This is when I'm using the official Debian net installation CD.) Do I need a specific installer that has support for the controller? Or can I enable support in the installer durin the install process? I did find a 3w-xxxx driver by switching to another terminal, but I don't know if it loaded properly, and in RAID1 mode. I want to be sure I don't hose my RAID array since I already have two other OS's on there that I'm actively using. (When partitioning my drive I left an empty 20GB partition for an eventual Debian install - this will be my first.)
