I've been producing Areca/CentOS driver RPM packages since early 4.0 days: http://www.bodgit-n-scarper.com/code.html#centos Might be a little easier to keep updated with yum. As for booting, provided the kernel driver is in the initrd for the kernel, it will work fine as a boot volume, (the same as all of the other storage controllers). As long as you have the line: alias scsi_hostadapter arcmsr in /etc/modprobe.conf, the driver will get included by mkinitrd. My package will check for this on install. I need to upload the latest versions, but they Work For Me so far. Matt
