I have a dell precision 380:
http://catalog.us.dell.com/CS1/CS1Page2.aspx?br=6&c=us&cs=555&fm=11210&l=en&s=biz

with an Intel Matrix Storage Manager ICH7R RAID Controller
http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/imsm/sb/cs-020663.htm

I need to get CentOS 3 installed on this thing but can't
due to the fact that the controller is not supported
in 2.4 kernels.

There is a patch available from http://iswraid.sourceforge.net/.

Question - Since the installer has the "wrong" kernel, how
do I go about getting it installed with the patched kernel?

-Mark
