the recent discussion of support for Promise SATA drives reminded me that a while back i remember reading about a project to assemble a driver disk to provide wider hardware support than just stock CentOS. how's that coming along? i don't see anything in the wiki about it...
as i have a vested interest in this project (since i'm still relying on old MegaRAID controllers), i'd be willing to help out with it. what's the current status, and what needs doing?
thanks, -steve
Personally, I could seriously use one with good support for those crusty old megaraid controllers that doesn't involve the use of a floppy drive, I have an old PE6450 that I can't seem to get anything useful to run on, and it's old internal FDD is dead, and grafting a fresh one in didn't even slightly work after a lot of hassle/time spent. In general, as wide as possible of driver support, possibly selectable in the install process, or with a decently documented workaround to enable/disable would be the shizzle.
