Hello,

Are here any people who have a linux distro installed on their GX21?
I heard there seem to be some problems with the Promise raid accelerator.
Tyan support tells me that promise provides a binary driver that is only
compiled against recent rh && suse distro kernels.

Does anyone here has linux on his GX21 and if yes, what are your
experiences? (2.4, 2.6, free drivers, compiled drivers, ...)


Thanks

michael

There are two GX21 models. One is dual Xeon and the other based on P4.
Which one do you have?
