3.6 will install on it. I believe the aac driver still exists but is disabled by default. You could install 3.6, recompile the kernel with aac support enabled then upgrade. I have multiple 2650s running OpenBSD and was quite dissappointed in the Adaptec issue. I understand why this was done, but it sucks to have to deal with this issue with many systems. Its to bad vendors still dont realize the money they lose by not cooperating. I've started to move away from Dell to IBM hardware. Ideally Id like to get 3.7 running on the HS20 blades... Thanks, Ryan
