So vmware emulates a raid controller but you don't want to use it. But at the same time most people who do have such a raid controller would want software for it, so why should Debian not install the software that is appropriate to that controller? Can't you tell vmware to not emulate that raid controller if you have no intention of using it? Now how many people have that controller and use it as just a scsi controller rather than a raid controller might be a good question. perhaps most owners of such hardware don't actually care for the raid monitoring software. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
