Ok, here are the notes that I wrote to myself of how to get Software
RAID and the Promise Ultra/66 in the same kernel:
1. Don't use the RedHat version of the 2.2.14 kernel. It has
too many patches, so the other patches won't work.
2. Do unpack the linux-2.2.14.tar.gz file.
3. Apply the ide.2.2.14.20000124.patch file using this command:
cd /usr/src; patch -p0 < ide.2.2.14.20000124.patch
4. Apply the raid patch using this command:
cd /usr/src; patch -p0 < raid-2.2.14-B1
5. Configure the kernel.
6. Compile it and install it.
7. Follow the instructions on the Software RAID How-To file about how
to get RAID partitions to work.
To get these files:
The kernel source:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.2/linux-2.2.14.tar.gz
The ide patch:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hedrick/old/ide.2.2.14.20000124.patch.gz
The RAID patch:
