Re: [CentOS] Adaptec 6405 and Centos 5.6

2011/5/11 Rainer Traut tr.ml@gmx.de:

You could also ask on the elrepo mailinglist. There was a request not too long ago.

http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo/2011-April/000637.html

So maybe you can install centos 5.4, then install their newer aacraid driver and then you can update the kernel as well...

As Rainer said, this is best discussed on the ELRepo mailing list, but ...

There is a good chance that kmod-aacraid from ELRepo works on the Adaptec RAID in question. To confirm this, it will be helpful to get the hardware fingerprint.

# lspci | grep -i raid

will show a line similar to:

01:00.0 RAID bus controller: Adaptec AAC-RAID

Then running this:

lspci -n | grep 01:00.0

will display the vendor:device ID pairing.
