All,

Does anybody know if a driver exists for this controller under Linux.

I have searched the web and cannot find it anywhere, honest :)

So far no. The ServRAID controller is PowerPC based and
there's nothing readily available yet. BUT, IBM and I have a call in
to RedHat regarding that very thing. RedHat's website is run by a
group of Netfinity 7000s so they might possibly have something under
development. I'll post something if I find anything out.

Thanks for the response. I would very much like to be kept upto date on
the status of a driver for this controller.

I'd like to contribute to this thread with the following information.
IBM does sell the Netfinity's with Linux installed and technical
support. You might try to contact IBM for more information.

A friend and I are trying to find the name of the ServeRAID
hardware engineer. He (my friend) has met him on several occasions
when attending server seminars (my friend is a regional "Top Gun" for
IBM service), and that fellow may be able to tell us more about the
situation. Again, I'll post whatever I find (even if it's bad).
