[CentOS] Serverworks HT1000 chipset drivers (Supermicro H8SSL motherboard)
Anyone using boards with this chipset? I've gotten some dual core single cpu boxes along with the physical dual cpu boxes I just received and they're using the Serverworks HT1000 (Broadcom 5785) chipset. My CentOS 4.2 DVD doesn't want to recognize the chipset so I can't see any of the SATA drives in the integrated SATA ports. Drives on 3Ware cards work as expected, but I was hoping to also make use of the integrated SATA ports. I'm downloading 4.3 via bitorrent now, but I suspect that isn't going to solve the problem without some command line magic. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers,

I managed to find a "driver disk" from Supermicro's ftp server for RHEL4 so I'm hoping that will fix the problem. According to a few posts I found in various forums, the driver I'm after seems to be "sata_svw". Hopefully, that does it. Otherwise, I guess it's time so scrounge up some extra 3ware cards instead. :-) Cheers,
