OK I found out that AMI makes my raid controller and called hyperdisk100
(for ata100). AMI.com has an RPM file to patch the 2.2.16-3 kernel for use
with RH6.1.  It does make new /dev/ devices so I dont have do fiddle with
s/w raid, I just use new /dev devices in fstab and the bios does all the
hardware raidstuff for me.  Here is my problem that I need help with: I am
using RH7 with the 2.2.16-22 kernel.  And when I used gnorpm to 'upgrade' it
warned me that some files require the new kernel (16-22).  How should I go
about this?  Anyone have any ideas?
