It should work in theory. But if the driver disk is for RedHat 5u1, it probably won't work with CentOS 5.2, as the install media will have a different kernel. The driver disk only patches the running installer kernel AFAIR.

I get a 404 on the url in the OP's post, but if someone has a url to the driver disk in question, I can try and look at what the issue might be

I don't know, but a visit to the Dell support page for the PowerEdge R905 doesn't yield a driver disk that I can find, and I don't see anything on linux.dell.com either.
