I have a friend using this RAID and has expressed interest. I would like to know when you have the installs ready.

Subject: Re: Driver disk for Fasttrack100 Raid (I know it's crappy)

I find this quite hard to believe. Did it find a raid array you created on
the promise chip, or did it just find drives connected to it? Drives
connected to it are simple. Open source drivers exist for this, and are
included in the Red Hat install kernel. Drivers for accessing a raid array
on this chip do not exist on the Red Hat install media, confirmed by the
developer of Red Hat's install system.
Not to worry though, since I was directed to freely downloadable source
(stubs?) to the FastTrack.o modules, that I am using to create an install
time driver disk. I'll keep the list posted if there is any interest, and
even setup downloads for the driver disk if/when I'm done.
