These machines were initially installed with 2.2.x kernels but now run 2.4.x kernels. They work fine with kernel-image-2.4.x-686, but have locally-built kernels to access >1G of RAM.

The compaq smartarray controller works as well. I have used them on debian 2.2 and 3.0(only under 2.2.x kernels) on compaq DL380s. looks like AMI megaraid is supported too. probably some others too, check to see what the kernel supports and compare those compile options with the kernel-config files for debian, e.g. the default kernel config is: http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/Debian3.0r1a/main/disks-i386/current/images-1.44/kernel-config unless your using the 2.4.x boot floppies then its: http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/Debian3.0r1a/main/disks-i386/current/images-1.44/bf2.4/kernel-config nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

which RAID cards work with debian?
Hi I tried to install woody on an old HP server with NetRAID card and it didn't recognize it. I've also couldn't find any reference for this over the internet. I was wondering which RAID cards are supported except for Mylex (I know that the Hardware-HOWTO lists only mylex as supported, but most linux distributions support many other cards). thanx -- Haim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
