Hi,

I'm wondering if anybody has installed scientific linux on a DELL 2900 .

We are looking to purchase one that is dual processor with 4Gb of RAM
and a RAID 1 system for a number SATA disks.

My main worry is whether if drivers exist for its RAID controller called 
PERC5/i
in SL3 which is the current distribution in our cluster or we would have to
upgrade to SL4.

Any thoughts or ideas are welcome.

Cheers,
Aldo
