Hello Karun,
there are only some realIDE-Raid-Controllers
available for Linux.
We've tested some and now we are using

This one is fast and reliable. It costs about
350Eur. - I think that's okay.
We tested another one, some days ago from
Hello,
Has anybody used any IDE raid controller cards at all? What do people think
about the one they have if any?
Im planning on buying one, but not sure which one to get/use.
Thanks

More Info:
Last year I gave a promise IDE raid card a good go on Redhat and
Mandrake.
IMHO Do not try promise controllers. Windows support is apparently good.
Linux support not so good.

Try netconfig. That should at least work for your primary NIC.
OTOH you could hack /etc/sysconfig/network, /etc/sysctl.conf,

In either case be sure to then run /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart

Incredible as it may sound, not everyone uses Microsoft Office. In

lesser number of WordPro (née AmiPro) fans.
Unfortunately, StarOffice has almost no support for WordPerfect

I just tried several documents. Saving from Amipro as *.doc OO won't open
them at all. Saved a document with lots of tables as *.rtf, OO will open it
but the tables are a mess. A lot of cells span multiple columns in the
original *.sam, but not in OO. Might be time to RTFM.

This is correct, but Linux will see them correctly even if the BIOS doesn't.
The only problem I can see is, that you cannot boot from the HDD (because
the BIOS does not see it or not the correct size) and you might have to boot
from floopy, but once you have booted Linux it will see the drive

I'm not saying that it's Next Media's fault, as I believe some people
have downloaded the ISO's directly from RedHat and had the same

I don't use redhat personally and never usually do, but always tend to try and
snag the iso's in some way.
