Hi,
since im using Debian, the installer is not able to find the
sata-controller used in DELL PowerEdge 850 and 860 Servers. i started
with 31r0a and currently tried it with 31r5, each was 32bit for i386.
Now im trying the 31r5 for ia64 (server is capable of that). If i do
lsmod on the pre-installed system, which is installed by my hoster,
it only shows three modules, the main-module is mptsas which needs
two other modules. Is there a fix for the installer or a planned
solution in the next release? Thanks Regards

ia64 is Itanium, which is different than amd64 in Debian. Does Dell do
Itanium? Using Etch is good advice.
I have a PowerEdge 850 with a Pentium D processor. It has Intel's EM64T
64-bit support, which can be used with adm64 but *not* ia64. Mine has
been running Etch without any problems using a 32-bit smp kernel.
