yes, with Modular Smart Array G2.

I am a newbie in this; what I saw on the web is that there is a driver for
the Smart Array Driver named : cciss .
Am I right about this ?
what I am not sure is about this driver: does it work with RHEL5 with
hardware such as
I have ? or maybe it will work only in RHEL 5.1 beta ? from where
should I get this
 cciss driver ?

Another thing is: I saw a couple of time talks about  Integrated
Lights-Out (iLO)  virtual-cdrom; what is this ? when installing from
the dvd drive in the HP machine - am I using it ? as I said, I am a
newbie in this ; sorry for my ignorance.

Regards,
Ian
