Alrighty - here are my findings: |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Desktop (HighPoint RAID controller) |
| 30 |
No problems booting, but I got this error after keymap selection: |
| 31 |
(something to the effect of)Cannot open /dev/tty0, no such file or dir |
| 32 |
And when I `less` something, I get a message about a magic file. Prolly |
| 33 |
nothing important, but I figured I would doc it anyway. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
As for my RAID controller, it was not automogically modprobed, I had to |
| 36 |
do it by hand. Once I did it though, it was fine. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Compaq Deskpro (Work box) |
| 39 |
Same as above minus the RAID issues. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Other than that, looks good. |
| 42 |

Cheers, |
