ML570 (6400 Smart Array Controller) + Debian
Has anyone succesffuly installed Debian on the Smart Array 6400?(If so, did you use a driver disk, or create your own Deb install CD with 2.4.25 kern?)
Any information is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
MB

I know the 2.4.21+ kernels have a compatable 'cciss' driver for that series of card.

My only other options are to create a driver disk (Can't find a generic driver though - Only RH vers's.), or to create a custom install CD, that has 2.4.25 kern with cciss support compiled in (I assume this is <*> Compaq Smart Array 5xxx support under block devices?)

The config name is 'CONFIG_BLK_CPQ_CISS_DA'.

Re: ML570 (6400 Smart Array Controller) + Debian
My next question is - I have 4x148.6G Drives with Deb Installed - If I wanted to add new drives to the existing array (Via Top Tools), how would I then make this new space available once in Debian(Or any other Linux for that matter) - I know with Windows, you can dynamically add (Once new capacity is available) space to existing partitions...Is this doable under Linux (Special Partitioning Software?) - Or would I need to create new arrays of storage, and mount them as new partitions in fstab?

MB

It might be hidden somewhere in the ACU-XE however, as I've not fully explored that thing.
Getting that installed on Debian though might be a challenge.

I had to really strip down the kernel image, so your NIC may not function (From memory I def. have support for EtherExpressPro/100)

I have been told that tools such as: resize_reiserfs can be used to (as the name suggest!) resize the partition size with the newly available space.
