Re: 2.6 kernel on PowerEdge 1850?



FWIW OpenIPMI with ipmitools is working with kernel 2.6.15, and the new megaraid driver works with the Perc 4e/Si, so it seems that I have achieved my objectives.

I stand corrected, it is Debian Sarge. Experimentally, I have pulled in linux-image-2.6.15-1-686-smp from Debian Etch with its dependent packages, rebooted, and that kernel finds the Perc 4e/Si. There were a bunch of errors about udev during boot up which were not captured in "dmesg" or the other system logs, I will follow up on those errors.

The "udev" errors were cleared up by having "testing" repository enabled, and then:

apt-get install yaird
apt-get remove initramfs-tools
dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`

as described in this forum:
