Dave,
Nice kit to have! However, you don't specifiy the performance of the drives
and what you want to achieve with your multitude of RAID arrays. I have not
installed the OS on to a SCSI RAID array, so I can't say if you'll have
problems. Now, if you're installing on to an ATA RAID array, that's
different, particularly with a 2.6 kernel.
Was at the Expo today and SuSE people say 9.1 will hit the shops in 2 weeks or
so.
