Promise RAID card?

[Peter Elsner]

I don't know about the SX6000, but I have one on a motherboard (can't 
recall what model), I think the Promise TX2000, that works fine.

the GENERIC kernel recognized it and configured it for a RAID 1 (striping 
2-80 gigs for a total of 160 gigs)...  It boots just fine off
of that one.

I worry about my child and the Internet all the time, even though she's
too young to have logged on yet. Here's what I worry about. I worry
that 10 or 15 years from now, she will come to me and say "Daddy, where
were you when they took freedom of the press away from the Internet?"

Unix IS user friendly... It's just selective about who its friends are.
System Administration - It's a dirty job, but somebody said I had to do it.
