To install RHEL, you'd need a driver disk for the Adaptec card. ELRepo (Phil Schaffner) provides one for the the 6000 series here: http://www.elrepo.org/people/pschaff/dud/ as DUP_el6_i686_20111230.iso.gz (32-bit) and DUP_el6_x86_64_20111230.iso.gz (64-bit). More details can be found here: http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=206 Will be great if you can test it.
