The problem is that the Dac960 driver is a module, and the RH
installer doesn't recognize the pci id of the A170. As a result the
installer fails to load the module. As far as I know no one has ever
fixed this for 7.0. In theroy it's possible to create a drivers disk,
but I've never tried to make one. VA's 6.2.4 will install on this
controller. I don't remember if our 7.0.1 has the correct pci id in the
pcitable or not.

PS- Please be aware that the above isos are simply VA Linux Systems
reinstallation cdrom. We really only support them on VA hardware for VA
customers.
