Yes, the installer works just fine. This is after a fresh install. No tweaks have been done. Downloaded the Alt Install 64bit CD ISO. Boot from it, run through the installer, reboot, blam. The CD is ok as I can install AMD 64bit systems and it works great with no problems. On first login I tr

reiserfs v3. I can try ext3. Considering though that everything works ok afterwards with a new kernel, I don't think that's it. Feels like compiler optimizations in gcc >= 3.4. Once I booted the recompiled vanilla kernel, X works fine using vesa? but since this is a samba server, I have gdm tur

Using a kernel from the other supermicro server (Hoary 2.6.10) to boot from, I was then able to apt and compile from the vanilla source tree (patched with mm3 to get Areca support) a 2.6.17 kernel that works fine. I had to use gcc 3.3. Same source with 3.4 would not work. Ubuntu 2.6.15-7 source d

So checking back in to this issue... Installed 6.06.1 on a MSI 7125 system (64bit Nforce4 board) onto 4 port Areca 1210 PCIe array. Both 32 and 64bit flavors installed on array results in the same behvaior as above. Installed onto a 40Gb IDE disk with Areca removed entirely and no errors with ei

Reinstalled, used ext3 for root. Before rebooting after the installer, chrooted to /target, apt'd stuff to get kernel tools, source, etc. apt'd the xeon prebuilt package which I hadn't noticed before, might as well try it. Also built 2.6.15.7 from ubuntu source with gcc 4.0.3. Finished the last

I figured out a way to make it work. 1) If you boot off of a different device, everything is fine. Say a single ide/sata OS disk with Areca /data volume. But then you don't have a RAID backed OS disk... Could setup a MD RAID 1 OS I guess. But then you need even more disks. 2) Using the Arec
