Hi JD'
Actually they have drivers for RH 7/8 and 9.0., Suse 8 and 9.
It is just that RH ES 3.0 seems different from RH9.0 and CentOS 3.3 doesn't even tells me that the driver is ok or not.
Will give it another try today and will see if it works.
Will keep this newsgrioup posted.

Unfourtantely, Promise Technology does not offer open source drivers. Nor offer any drivers to the
Linux community for there upper class cards.
I went through the same problem. But, With me. I did not do my home work and it costed me some
down time when I went out on a raid shopping spree. Now when I buy PC/Server parts. I make sure
it's supported under Linux.

Thanks, I sent a test email and I guess Yahoo must
have lost it in cyberspace.

Hello all,
When I go to use up to date, it gets hung up on the
"Process Dialog"
Fetching http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3.1/
addon/i386//headers/header.info
It just stays there and doesn't move. This happens
every time I go to try an update my system.
Anyone else have this problem or is this a know bug?
Thanks
Dom

Hi David,
This is a new installation of Centos.
APIC is disabled. Promise SX4000 RAID FastTrack is shown on the list of drivers CentOS but doesn't know what to do with it not it gives me an error nor displays like an available device.
It would be a shame to switch to Microsoft SBS 2003 just to get this RAID card going.

Hi,
I haven't used that device, but I've been working several issues with a
pair of 3Ware 9500's , and we've seen diferences when enabling/disabling APIC
on the MB bios (could also try booting the kernel with "noapic"). Also, check
in your MB manual if there are any possible conflicting devices, such as the
USB sharing the some address or resources of your PCI-X bus (something like
that happened to me..).
I would also help if you stated clearly what the problem is. Is the module
not compiling (do you have the kernel sources installed ?? make sure there is
a link /usr/src/linux to the sources...) . Or is the module not loading ?
(check dmesg| tail -n20, and look for messages related..). Or is the module
loading OK, but when you put load on the device it crashes ?? (that's my
problem right now.. I'm working on that one).

Hi I have tried to install Centos v3.3 with a PRomise SX4000Lite IDE RAID controller but without success.
Can anyone give me a hint why ??? this is the first time that I use something besides what's included in the kernel.
