the recent discussion of support for Promise SATA drives reminded me
that a while back i remember reading about a project to assemble a
driver disk to provide wider hardware support than just stock CentOS.
how's that coming along? i don't see anything in the wiki about it...
as i have a vested interest in this project (since i'm still relying
on old MegaRAID controllers), i'd be willing to help out with it.
what's the current status, and what needs doing?
thanks,

Personally, I could seriously use one with good support for those crusty
old megaraid controllers that doesn't involve the use of a floppy drive, I
have an old PE6450 that I can't seem to get anything useful to run on, and
it's old internal FDD is dead, and grafting a fresh one in didn't even
slightly
work after a lot of hassle/time spent. In general, as wide as possible
of driver
support, possibly selectable in the install process, or with a decently
documented
workaround to enable/disable would be the shizzle.
