Operating System: January 2008 Archives

Dell 2950 server combines PERC5 Raid controller which needs the last Linux kernel to identify the raid controller driver. At the first time, I try to install RedHat Advanced Server 4 Update2 x86_64 on this server, but this version cannot identify the raid driver of PERC5.

Finally, from Dell tech support, I get to know that only RHEL 4 Update 5 or RHEL 5 can be installed on Dell 2950. So, if you also need install RedHat RHEL on Dell 2950, please try RHEL 4 Update 5 or RHEL 5 version.

Today, I upgraded my server from current FreeBSD 6.2 to 8.0, I'm looking forward to the new features and high performance of this new version!
