I want to install CentOS 5.1 with hardware RAID on an HP DL140 G3 server
that I have here for testing. It prompts me for a storage controller.
According to this readme page for the latest driver at
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib2/software1/pubsw-linux/p1463703615/v44436/mpt
linux-4.00.13.01-2.rhel5.i686.dd.gz.txt
CentOS 5 should already contain a "default driver version contained in the
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 installation CD"
I would rather like to use that than go the complicated route of providing
the latest HP driver. That "HP Internal Port SAS/SATA HBA with RAID"
actually is a RAID controller from LSILogic and I tried to load all four
LSILogic drivers provided on the driver list, but none is accepted.
Does somebody have experience with this server/RAID controller and can
tell me if I can go somehow with the drivers provided by CentOS 5.1 or do
I need to go with the drivers provided by HP?
