Hi,
I just had a crash on two of the drives on one vinum RAID-5 volume;

this I did something 'stupid', which I managed to fix, but I wanted to know
what the right way would have been.
Like I said one RAID-5 volume was

OK, but I have the older non-raid just ATA100 controller version, which is why
I suspect it might not work.
Hi,
does anyone know if the Promise ATA100 controller PCI card supports 160 G
disks on -STABLE?
Thanks,

You probably need to tell the kernel to use the serial console:

No clue. You'll have to test it. Make sure that you have reverted all of

Hi,
here at my workplace they're installing a wireless network. Since this
