Greetings all. I'm new to the mailing list. Hope to get to know many of you. I'll jump right in with a recent project. I have a machine with RHEL WS 3 - Taroon; plus dual boot to Win 2000 Pro. The RAID card is Adaptec's 2400A w/128 megs cache, running RAID 10 on 4 WD's. I want to migrate to 5.2 Centos and wipe the NTFS partition. I have the 5.2 Centos DVD. Anyone see any problems, special preparation needed, whatever, to accomplish the migration? The RAID uses dpt_i2o drivers. The NVidia card can get drivers from their website, if need be to support full functionality. Please advise with any cautions, considerations, you may care to give. Thanks in advance.


that card wasn't actually an Adaptec product, it was from DPT, a company Adaptec bought, then later sank/discarded, so its questionable if theres much support for it anymore... Its a shame, back in the day, DPT were much better RAID cards than anything Adaptec themselves had made.
