[elrepo] kmod-aacraid request

[Maurits van de Lande]

Hello Alan,

I have tested the kmod-aacraid package from the elrepo-testing repository on centos 5.6.

-          First I installed the centos 5.6 base kernel 2.6.18-238.el5 (on a usb storage device) (Adaptec doesn't have a working driver disk for el5 (yet))

-          Then I installed the kmod-aacraid package

-          Rebooted the server to use the new driver

o   Driver is working!

-          Then I used dd to copy the usb storage data to a disk on the Adaptec 6805 RAID Adapter

-          Again rebooted the server and removed the usb storage device

o   System booted from the disk on the Adaptec RAID controller

-          Then  I updated the system to the latest kernel 2.6.18-238.9.1el5

-          Rebooted the server

o   And again the driver is working fine!

As far as I can tell after this quick test the kmod-aacraid package works fine.

Thank you very much for building this package!

Best regards,

Maurits van de Lande
