Hi,
I'm trying to install K12LTSP based on CentOS 5.0-el 32bits kernel 2.6.18-8 on a server with 3ware 9650SE raid controller. Does anybody know where I can find a driver diskette for the raid controller as this is only supported from kernel 2.6.19.
Thanks for any help
Gert
Hi Gert,
The 3Ware drivers for EL50/ CentOS5 can be downloaded from: http://www.3ware.com/KB/article.aspx?id=15203
But I have red somewhere that the (in kernel 2.6.19 vanilla) 9650SE driver is backported to 2.6.18 EL in the 5.1 or 5.2 kernel series. If not, 3Ware also provide drivers for those kernels.

You REALLY don't want to use the 2.6.18-8 kernel. It's got a nasty vulnerability in it (vm_splice). Is there a reason you're using 5.0 instead of 5.1 or 5.2?

I think that is the initial kernel on the CD rolled by the K12LTSP project. It probably yum updates right away( one hopes).
