CentOS - Jun 2008 - 3Ware 9690SA

I successfully installed CentOS on 3ware 9650SE controller.  Due to some 
issues with compatibility with my motherboard, I replaced it with a 
9690SA. 

Now the system won't boot (although interestingly enough, it find the 
boot menu fine, just won't boot past a certain point in the bootup phase.

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?

That controller requires a newer version of the 3ware driver. I'm
pretty sure the 5.2 will have that driver. So if you can wait a bit
longer...
