OK, I've gotten the x86_64 CentOS 4.3 DVD downloaded now so I'll have
another go at it. I managed to find a "driver disk" from Supermicro's
ftp server for RHEL4 so I'm hoping that will fix the problem. According
to a few posts I found in various forums, the driver I'm after seems to
be "sata_svw". Hopefully, that does it. Otherwise, I guess it's time
so scrounge up some extra 3ware cards instead. :-)
Cheers,
