Hello CentOS, Does anyone know if there's a driver out there that'll enable CentOS 4.x to use the Intel Matrix SATA RAID settings on the 915 chipsets? -- Best regards, Mickael mailto:mike at kamloopsbc.com www.MickaelMaddison.com

Hi Last week I had a lengthy thread in which someone indicated the my SIL card is a FRAID (don't know if F stands for the F word or Fake, though it doesn't really matter). I want to replace the controller with a controller that Linux will see the RAID1 group as a single HD and not multiple HDs as it happens with the SIL controller. Recommendations anyone? -- TIA Paolo -------...

I'm trying to install CentOS 4 on an A8V on the PATA/Raid drives on the Promise controller. The Promise controller is recognized (sata_promise), but the PATA drives are not recognized. Base on this thread https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=147303 it seems that there is a patch which was merged in 2.6.11 to get pata working. Any ideas how to proceed? Thanks in advance

Hello, In some weeks I'm going to reinstall some old RedHat9 based servers with Promise FastTrak TX2000 "semi-hardware" RAID1 controllers. I just tried to install CentOS 4.0 on a computer with a spare card and as usual both HDD attached to the RAID1 controller are seen separately by the installer because the specific driver for the TX2000 wasn't loaded. Nothing new here, it

I have a dell precision 380: http://catalog.us.dell.com/CS1/CS1Page2.aspx?br=6&c=us&cs=555&fm=11210&l=en&s=biz with an Intel Matrix Storage Manager ICH7R RAID Controller http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/imsm/sb/cs-020663.htm I need to get CentOS 3 installed on this thing but can't due to the fact that the controller is not supported in 2.4 kernels. There is a patch

I have RH 8 running on a Abit BE7-RAID motherboard. My task is installing Centos 4.1 with limited knowledge on installing with hardware RAID. The arrays are still in place for the two pairs of drives. HighPoint only shows drivers up through RH 9. Is there anyone who can take me through the steps? Remove the existing arrays? Will the drivers work with Centos 4.1? Since I used Windows to

...to solve #1 for ATA, _only_ SATA with its staggered data/power (using the 15-pin power, and not the legacy 4-pin Molex) is the _best_ guarantee. But typically #1 is not that much of an issue, because the carrier does a decent job at this (some better than others though). The big issue with "FRAID" is at #2. A biggie is when you use the master/slave and remove one. But even if you do master-only, how do you take out a device and replace it -- virtually "resetting" the ATA-PCI arbitration. It typically does _not_ work if the ATA controllers are directly connected to the syst...

Hi Everyone, Has anyone had any experience of using the Promise FastTrak SX4000 or SuperTrak SX6000 IDE RAID Controllers under Centos (if it matters I'm using version 4). I've seen it listed on linuxcompatible.org as working but would prefer to find out any first-hand experince before I buy. I'm looking to build a new mini server based on Mini-ITX and have found a great 1U case

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has tried and succeeded to use this controller. Its the bc4852 SATA controller. There's supposed to be support for it, but so far we've not been able to get the driver to load during the install and thus we've got no "valid drive" on which to load the OS. thanks, -- Mark

Hi All Just like to know if some one got or has running a "VIA 6410 IDE RAID Controller" with centos 4(.1) I have a server I need to get install, that has this on-board I have even test the with Knoppix 3.8 and it don't not pick it up at all. but the card and the drivers work ok ( tested this with the bart PE (XP) cd ) See BUG. "That's not a bug,

Hi: I've tried to install centos 4.3 in a raid array, setuped on bios as mode "Adaptec". The chip is ICH7R but centos always sees 2 drives instead of the array that I create. I've contacted Supermicro support and they gave me this link ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/driver/SATA/Adaptec_ICH7R/Linux/Redhat/ , but the disk drivers I tried to use with centos 4.3 did not work, saying that

Hello, guys. I know, that this is old bug, but still... I tried to use patch from bug 19948 (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19948), but it does not work.

Hi, I am new to this list. I am planning for hardware upgrade for a new Linux installation, and I am planning to have it Xen-based. I am planning to use stable Xen 2.x. This is not going to be a hyper-performance computer, just a home computer. So here are few questions I have: What configurations of CPU/Motherboard/Chipset etc. are already known not to work, or have problems with Xen? Are

Dear gurus, Three DELL SC430s were purchased by my company a few months back and I've been told that when they spoke with the DELL representatives, they were informed that these servers were fully RHEL 4.0 compatible. Specs of the servers:- - Pentium 4 - 2.8 GHz - 1 GB RAM - 2x 250GB SATA HDDs I tried installing CentOS 4.0 on it but it doesn't seem to be able to detect any hard

I''ve finally managed to find some time to do some serious work on Mocha. There are some code snippets on my blog (http://blog.floehopper.org/articles/2007/04/12/preview-of-latest-mocha-changes) showing the new functionality available in trunk (revision 128). I don''t don''t know how many people out there are using trunk, but it would be great to get some feedback on these

Sorry for an OT post, but given the recent discussions here re raid, I was wondering if anyone had any info on the ITE 8212 RAID controller (GigaRAID) This is a PATA HW RAID as found on the GigaByte GA-8I915P-PRO motherboard. (I can see an IC on the board labeled GigaRAID. Their manual claims that is has it's own CPU). I am not using it because I have SATA, but I am still curious about

I've two machines with almost identical hardware (slightly different CPUs). The SATA/RAID controller is SiI 3114. One of the servers was installed a while ago by someone else, it's running Fedora Core 5 and RAID is enabled: # df -m Filesystem 1M-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/dm-6 125931 2990 116441 3% / /dev/dm-1 99

Binary compiled on a system with ggc 5.5.0 w/ libstdc++.so.6.0.21 Because the major version is libstdc++.so.6 there shouldn't be any problems running it on CentOS 7 with libstdc++.so.6.0.19, right?

Exactomundo. Even AHCI is still software-driven. It is my sincerest hope that the term "FRAID" (or something else) catches on to describe this "Free RAID" / "trick BIOS" approach. -- Bryan J.

Alle, I was wondering if anyone is using 4.X on any Fujitsu Primergy hardware and what type of experience they've had. I know that FJ provides separate drivers for all the supported hardware that are supposed to be RHEL4.X compatible, but I have my doubts. Best Regards, Camron Best Regards, Camron -- Camron W.
