People,
I have an IWill IDE Raid card with the Highpoint HPT370 Chip. I am
running this on a Dual Processor board (800MHz PIIIs) with a Mandrake
8.0 Disrtibution (2.4.3 Kernel). 200MB of RAM and all slots filled with
lots of cards. I was glad to see that Linux auto-detected the IDE/Raid card.

Since the 2.4.x advent of shm as tmpfs or thereabouts,
/proc/meminfo shows shared memory as 0. It is in
reality not zero, and is being allocated, and shows
up in /proc/sysvipc/shm and /proc/sys/kernel/shmall
etc..
Neither 2.4.6-pre5 nor 2.4.5-ac17 have the correct
