Sarge installer with Areca support



FYI:

I have created a custom Sarge ISO that supports the Areca RAID controller:

http://www.tienhuis.nl/areca/

Today I have updated it so that both 2.4 and 2.6 installer kernels support
the controller.

All my previous attempts worked OK but they did not recognize the
controller cards automagically, so you had to go CTRL-ALT-F2 and modprobe
the stuff by hand. Turned out I had to hack the
/usr/share/discover/pci.lst file and put proper entries in (tab
delimited!). Now it works like a charm.

Best regards,
