Hey guys,
I'm using a Supermicro aoc-sat2-mv8, which is supposedly supported by the
Linux kernel by "sata_mv" driver. Unfortunately, I've been unable to
troubleshoot why newer distros (and thus kernels) are not detecting/using
sata_mv for this card. I tried an (older) Slackware 12.1 install disk, that
for some reason works by use of sata_mv (12.1 was released may 2008, when I
think sata_mv was still beta). Anyhow, I've tried many newest releases from
Slackware, Arch, etc - and it seems newer kernels do not properly recognize
this card. I'm not sure what to make of the newer kernels saying "adaptec
aacraid driver" is being used (an incorrectly detected driver?). Anyway, I
was told this chipset had great linux support - does it still? Thanks a
lot.

We need a lot more hard detail, such as lspci and dmesg output.
Hi,
the aoc-sat2-mv8 is properly recognised and used (sata_mv) in Ubuntu 10.04
anyway (2.6.32) so it's not strictly a kernel issue.
