"lspci -v | grep -i adaptec" will tell. Anyway, more that looking into Adaptec's site I would make a search at the IBM pages. > Also need the steps to install What you demand is far from easy :-), not the installation itself but having to deal with hard disk controller drivers. You have to decide first what path to follow: install an updated kernel, compile an updated driver for your current kernel, getting a pre-made module from IBM or adaptec site... then decide when to install it (at install time or once the system has been installed) and finally run your own tests to see if all works as expected. Needless to say that these operations can fail and thus lose your data (or make it unaccesible) so before starting to play with the raid driver make a full backup of the data available on the array(s). It would be better to have no data on the arrays at all. Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
