Hi there, Anyone have a successful "IDE-RAID-only" installation on a SuperTrak SX6000 disk system? I have drivers for RedHat 7.1 (works fine) and found GPL source for building drivers, but I am having problems with module dependencies for the GPL code and Debian (2.2.r4 installation).

The main problem is that I am unable to load drivers for the disks so I 
have nowhere to install Debian :)

Do I :

1) make a driver floppy with /boot/pti_st.o ?
   - when I try to use insmod on the object file I have built (quite 
many now...) I get a list of unresolved symbols: kmalloc, 
scsi_unregister_module, scsi_register, unregister_blkdev, 
pcibios_present, free_irq, register_blkdev, iounmap, __ioremap, 
pci_read_config_word, io_request_lock, kfree, pci_devices, request_irq, 
scsi_register_module, pci_write_config_word, sprintf, printk, 
scsi_unregister
   - am I missing any modules that should have been added here?
   - parameters for compiling pti_st.o (SMP computer) have been taken 
from the supplied GPL'ed Makefile

2) make a bootable floppy with a 2.4.17(?) kernel? How do I get this to 
be the "default kernel" in a Debian installation? Any pointers to this 
kind of information is also appreciated.

3) use another IDE-RAID card? Yes I know the 3Ware controller is 
supported in 2.4 kernels, but I suspect this does leave me with the same 
kind of installation problem of Debian (but I have not tested)

Anybody know of some newer/modified source code for the SX6000 
somewhere? Maybe with a HOWTO or README file added?

If someone have useful information, please reply with a cc directly to me.

Thanks !
