Both modules ataraid and pdcraid are in current linux 2.4.x kernels, and there usually are some people around that would benefit from this (of course, i'd prefer an Adaptec or 3ware IDE-RAID, but most boards include FastTrak or HPT RAID). Is there any solution to extend the official d-i beta image with an extended kernel image that has this driver included?It only needed someone to remind us they existed. All the IDE raid modules will be included in a future image.
great! (but i hope that i never have to use this crap again :D) I think at the moment there are only two options: compile kernel with these drivers and build my own d-i CD or install on non-RAID-disk and copy all things to the RAID afterwards (of course with a new kernel). thx & best regards Markus -- \\\ ||| /// _\=/_ ( @ @ ) (o o) +--------oOOo-(_)-oOOo--------------------------oOOo-(_)-oOOo------+ | Markus Schabel TGM - Die Schule der Technik www.tgm.ac.at | | IT-Service A-1200 Wien, Wexstrasse 19-23 net.tgm.ac.at | | markus.schabel@tgm.ac.at Tel.: +43(1)33126/316 | | markus.schabel@members.fsf.org Fax.: +43(1)33126/154 | | FSF Associate Member #597, Linux User #259595 (counter.li.org) | | oOOo Yet Another Spam Trap: oOOo | | ( ) oOOo yast@tgm.ac.at ( ) oOOo | +--------\ (----( )--------------------------\ ( -----( )-----+ \_) ) / \_) ) / (_/ (_/ Computers are like airconditioners: They stop working properly if you open windows.
