what does `lspci` have to say about this raid card ? John, Thanks for the prompt : lspci demonstrates : 02:01.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID (rev 01) 02:02.0 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AIC-7902B U320 (rev 10) 02:02.1 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AIC-7902B U320 (rev 10)
could you try `lspci -nn`, this will return the vendor/device ID, which will pin down which megaraid it is.
but, I'm afraid the answer is, that hardware is way over 10 years old, and support has been dropped from newer OS releases. Those raid controllers require not only specific drivers, but also support utilities for monitoring the status of the raids, and configuring them.
The Megaraid family started back under NCR/Symbios in the late 80s, LSI acquired what was left of Symbios in 1998, Avago acquired LSI in 2014, then merged with Broadcom in 2016 (as I understand it, Avago acquired Broadcom, but then renamed themselves). Sadly, support for legacy hardware tends to evaporate in corporate takeovers as its seen as pure overhead.
