SATA disk driver for an HP ML110G3 server?



Hello List,

I'm currently evaluating an HP Proliant ML110G3 server. It's small, silent, clean inside and cheap. Really, a nice box. I stuck a testing boot CD into the drive (dated mid-November) and fired it up.

Unfortunately, it wasn't able to auto-detect what disk driver to use. I see a number of sata-* drivers are available, but I don't know how to determine the chipset. HP's website talks of drivers for Red Hat and Suse here:

http://h18004.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/23572.html

I suppose the "HP Embedded SATA RAID Controller" is just a rebadged chipset from someone else, but who?

So the question is: what, if any, of the sata drivers available in testing should I use? Or am I SOL? What sleuthing can I do to find out which chipset is used?

Thanks for clues and pointers,
David
