Poweredge 1300

[Ian Dale]

By drivers I'm assuming you mean drivers for your PERC2/SC raid card? If so
then you'll find that any Linux distribution with the 2.4.x kernel will have
the correct driver, which is called megaraid (megaraid_mbox and megaraid_mm)
to be precise).
Some Linux distributions that have the 2.5 kernel are RedHat Enterprise
Linux (RHEL) 3.x, Centos 3.x (RHEL clone), Redhat Fedora Core 1.x|2.x|3.x.

The current versions of Fedora Core, RHEL and CentOS all have the 2.6.x
Linux kernel, which modified the megraid driver and removed compatibility
for the PERC2/SC raid controller.


Regards,

Ian

I have a Poweredge 1300 with PERC raid, which I'm trying to set up 
running Linux. I have tried the current versions of Fedora Core, CentOS 
and Ubuntu, but none of them have the drivers. In googling for answers I 
found mention that no current distribution includes the drivers for the 
1300, that it is too old. Can anyone tell me a distribution/version that 
has the drivers included as part of the base distribution?
