This isn't exactly a Centos question but maybe someone here can help:
Does the AACRAID controller (as in an IBM 3550) store its config info
on the drives or internally?  I only have one of the boxes and want
to load Centos 3.x on several drives which can be swapped into
servers at another location.  With SCSI, all that took was a full disk
dd copy and a little fiddling with the HWADDR for the nics.  However
these don't even see a disk until you run the raid setup in bios.

Does anyone know if a new server will recognize the setup (one drive,
no raid) from the cloned disk or what it will take to make it
accept the swap?
