im not sure about that particular model of adaptec raid but there are a few of them that for sure do not work(they require software on the OS side in addition to a driver). i asked that same question not long ago and the response i got was MYLEX. i got a mylex DAC960-based raid controller and it works good sofar. and there is builtin support in the kernel. we had some problems with it and a supermicro motherboard because the MYLEX didn't support the new bios extensions but supermicro sent us a workaround bios upgrade to allow us to boot the machine. mylex said they would fix the prob in the next bios release. nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
