Hi there -- The version number associated with the driver is 0. There is no
further information available other than it was listed within the driver disk
creation utility as a Red Hat Enterprise 3 driver. Versions 3.3 and 3.4 are the
only two of the 3.x line that support the x86_64 architecture. Which version of
the two would you recommend as a starting off point?

Maybe ... Usually, the kernel version for the driver needs to match the
kernel it is built for. So, you would use CentOS-3 or CentOS-2.1 and get
the ISO that you need, based on the driver.
We did not release a CentOS-3.0 ... so there is not a CD for that.
What update # is the RHEL driver for (ie, RHEL-4 Update 2, etc.)
You can find old CDs and trees here:
