Request for Areca Support in Debian Etch
Hello Kernel Team,
i've tried more than one day to get a new server running with debian
sarge. Problem is that i've a Areca ARC-1210 RAID-Controller and there
is no ascmsr driver in any debian netinstall image.
I found an unofficial netinstall cd at http://www.tienhuis.nl/areca/ but
this cd won't detect my RAID Array. But the new releases of SuSE Linux
or Ubuntu working fine. But finally I want to stay with orginal Debian,
so Ubuntu or SuSE are only Toys for me :-)
Is there a posibility to integrate the driver into the new debian
relase. There are many small servers using this RAID-Card on market. So
I think there is an need for it. I know the driver isn't in offical
vanilla kernel yet. But it's included in the -mm Patches. That should be
a good sign.
