Thank you. I noticed that they said in the docs to install by using linux dd. 3ware provides a zip file with the drivers, not a disk image, AFAIK. I burned the contents of the zip to a cd, but anaconda fails to recognize it. It keeps complaining about not being able to find a fat or a ext3 filesystem on the driver disk.Jeff wrote:

I successfully installed CentOS on 3ware 9650SE controller. Due to someThat controller requires a newer version of the 3ware driver. I'm
issues with compatibility with my motherboard, I replaced it with a
9690SA.
Now the system won't boot (although interestingly enough, it find the

I thought I would reinstall, but anaconda doesn't find the raid array.
3ware does have drivers on their site, but I'm not too sure how to get
them
on my system?
pretty sure the 5.2 will have that driver. So if you can wait a bit
longer...

would like to get them up and running. Is there a way to load a driver on
an already running system, or load it for anaconda? Something similar to F6
in windows?
Yes, anaconda supports the concept of a driver disk.

And 3ware offers a disk image download for 9690SA/RHEL5.
I don't have a floppy drive, only a cdrom and a flash drive. Do I need to get a floppy drive in order for this to work?

Perhaps you can download RHEL 5.2 from Red Hat Network, if you are a customer there will be no problem but if you're not, maybe you can sign out for 30 day trial and then download the ISOs, burn it and test your box and share your results, it will be enough time for CentOS 5.2 to be available, so then you can be sure to run a production system.

I got almost the same issue with an Asus mainboard...that's my 2 cents.
