Hi Edward,

I am glad to hear the modified ISO works. I have backported the
patches and am in discussions with the kernel team about including
them in the default kernel.

One of our issues is that the patch set is quite large so we're
worried about regressions - do you have any older H7** raid
controllers? Are you in a position to help with regression testing?

Regards,
Daniel
