I decided to give it a go on my 9500S-12 machine. I was running -34.0.2
with the downloaded driver; my machine hung on reboot to -42.0.2, but a
hard poweroff/poweron cycle fixed that nonsense; it had hung booting the
initial initrd load on the new kernel. (just some FYI for remote rebooters).
Drivers:
2.6.9-34.0.2.ELsmp: v2.26.02.001
2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp: v2.26.04.010
I was previously running v2.26.04.009 tarball, so a small upgrade came
with the kernel. I just looked at 3ware.com, and this new driver version
isn't downloadable yet. Hmmm.
