Bug#399956: installation-reports etch RC1 and serveraid 8i

[Martin Foster <martin_foster@netlog.net>]

Thanks, I noticed the ips vs aacraid thing after filing the bug.  Been 
using ServerRAID 7 and 4 series for too long. However, aacraid was 
loaded on the current Etch RC1 2.6.17 kernel.

Will try again when the 2.6.18 kernel when it becomes available.  
Documentation/scsi/aacraid.txt has it listed

 9005:0285:9005:0290     IBM     ServeRAID 7t (Jaguar)
 9005:0285:1014:02F2     IBM     ServeRAID 8i (AvonPark)
 9005:0285:1014:0312     IBM     ServeRAID 8i (AvonParkLite)
 9005:0286:1014:9580     IBM     ServeRAID 8k/8k-l8 (Aurora)
 9005:0286:1014:9540     IBM     ServeRAID 8k/8k-l4 (AuroraLite)

Cheers!
