If anyone's got old RocketRAID cards, I just had to deal with one. They are years behind in updating their drivers - googling, I find the last time some were supported was CentOS 5.2. At any rate, I have just managed to build 1.8 of rr232x successfully, and am building filesystems on the drive as I type. I d/l the compressed tarballs from HighPoint's site. The changes to make it compile

Anyone who know if there exist drivers for Highpoints RocketRAID 454 for CentOS? I didn't find any on their site for RedHat Enterprise, which I tought would work with centos, so.. anyone? http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA/bios_rr454.htm /H?vard

Hello, I know that this card has support in FreeBSD but I'm curious if anyone has used them under heavy load in a RAID-5 configuration. We're thinking of equipping two of these cards with 8 120GB Hitachi drives and run it in an RAID-5 array for video material. The usual data streams will likely be 2-3 streams at about 5-20MB/s (totally) and I know that a single drive will handle that,

Has anyone on the list used one of these w/Linux? We currently use Linux + Cinelerra for editing uncompressed video (and a few dual G5 macs running Final Cut Pro). Current editing stations are getting a bit long in the tooth so I've been mulling over a mass upgrade. 8-) These cards are interesting to me because they are PCI-X and support 4 SATAII drives per multilane/infiniband

I picked up a RocketRaid 1640 card b/c it had support for "RedHat". Apparently, their version of "RedHat" is "stable"(9), which I pointed out was "dead" for all security purposes... (at least, that was what I understood from someone in one of the RH/clone IRC channels.) It turns out that I need to build a new driver from their open source code. This

I've got a HP dv8000 laptop. Setting up the wpi driver for wireless freezes the system on boot with the following error: wpi0 requested unsupported memory range wpi0: could not allocate memory resource It lists a pcbi device (pcbi4 i think) and an actual memory range, but since I have to reboot using kernel.old the /var/run/dmesg.boot is wiped with the info. Is there anyway to grab the

Guys, I was thrown a cheap OEM-server with a 120 GB SSD and 10 x 4 TB SATA-disks for the data-backup to build a backup server. It's built around an Asus Z87-A that seems to have problems with anything Linux unfortunately. Anyway, BackupPC is my preferred backup-solution, so I went ahead to install another favourite, CentOS 6.4 - and failed. The raid controller is a Highpoint RocketRAID

Hi, there's a regression going from 6.2 to 6.3, where it will panic upon booting the kernel within vm_fault. This problem has been discussed before, but I'm seeing it reliably on a RELENG_6 checkout from 5th of May. It affects multiple (but identical) systems, here's an verbose boot leading to the panic. Please note that 6.2 was running fine on these machines, they also boot

I can't install freebsd 6.0 STABLE amd64 on my notebook: HP Pavilion 2420la AMD Turion ML 32 , 1024 RAM, 80 GB HD, ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M. I try all modes , default, whitout acpi, safe mode. In all the cases after the next message the installation doesn't work: timecounters tick every 1000 msec Linux ELF exec handler install lo0.bpf attached I installed linux with parameter noapic

Hi all, Would anybody care to suggest a third party SATA-RAID card that works out of the box with CentOS 6, without having to jump through hoops to make it work? The card should preferably be able to connect ten harddrives, but I guess three four-port cards should work as well. There's no need for anything fancy really, as long as I can create a single big software-raid on it at CentOS

oops. I successfully installed RedHat 8.0 onto two ATA133 80gig drives running a mirrored RAID with the hpt37x (highpoint 372 onboard RaidController on the SOYO DRAGON motherboard.) I used ext3 as my filesystem type of choice but unfortunately the system shut down uncleanly and it now is coming up with the "press Y to force file system integrity check" at boot.... which it runs by

We're doing a "mini-RC3" to encourage testing of the Highpoint driver (hptrr) backout. Testing of 7.0-RC2 showed there were problems with the driver update done between RC1 and RC2. Because it's a "mini-RC" targetted at testing of one particular thing we have not bothered with setting up FreeBSD Update. You can use the normal cvsup-and-build method of doing an update

I am planning on building an opensolaris server to replace my NAS. My case has room for 20 hotswap sata drives and 1 or 2 internal drives. I was planning on going with 5 raidz vdevs each with 4 drives, and maybe a hot spare inside the case in one of the extra slots. I am going to use 2 Supermicro AOC-SAT2-MV8 cards (pci-x 133 each with 8 sata ports) The motherboard is going to be either

Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me, I'm putting together a Server for personal use, I want to virtualize a few servers(mail, web, ssh) and use it as a NAS, but I have a question if I can use Multiple RAID Arrays using the following HW: Intel Xeon Quad Core X3430 ASUS P7F-M LGA 1156 - LSI MegaRAID(integrated) - HighPoint RocketRAID 2640x1 2 Hitachi 500GB HDDs 4 Hitachi 1TB HDDs

Hello, I've been having spurrious crash troubles with this box a while now and I haven't been able to figure out why. I've ran a couple memtest passes on it and it didn't pick up anything. Here's a backtrace I've been able to obtain. The kernel config is at the end. It's the generic kernel with ULE. I'm following chapter 11 of the developers' handbook, so if

Hey all, well, first of all (even if it's quite late as it's in version 3.0.7 already): thanks a lot to all who are developing and supporting Samba! I'm new to Linux and I really like the way things are happening on this OS. But now, I've reached a point where I have to raise the white flag... It seems to me like - at least my - software raid can't dance Samba. I've got
