Bug#666108: Dell PERC H710P is not supported by Squeeze Standard Kernel
Jonathon, So far everything is looking good..We do NOT run a stock config so I have recompiled the kernel with our specific config and will run LTP testing on the system to determine if their are any more issues. -Buford From: Jonathan Nieder [jrnie...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, March 29, 2012 3:47 PM To: Buford Peek Cc: 666...@bugs.debian.org Subject: Re: Dell PERC H710P is not supported by Squeeze Standard Kernel block 624794 by 666108 tags 666108 + upstream patch moreinfo # hardware support severity 666108 important quit Buford Peek wrote: > dmesg | grep mega returned nothing...

Bug#666108: Dell PERC H710P is not supported by Squeeze Standard Kernel
Jonathon, Nix my last comment, ..it is looking like it works..It was late last night and I pretty much booted the standard linux-image-2.6.32-41 package again..I am still doing some preliminary testing and will get back with you later today on my findings. thanks for you help, -Buford From: Buford Peek [bp...@lancope.com] Sent: Friday, March 30, 2012 8:47 AM To: Jonathan Nieder Cc: 666...@bugs.debian.org Subject: Bug#666108: Dell PERC H710P is not supported by Squeeze Standard Kernel Jonathon, Looks like the patch didn't work ..I got the same problem as before when I booted the system.

Bug#666108: Dell PERC H710P is not supported by Squeeze Standard Kernel
Package: linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64 Version: 2.6.32-41 Tried to install Debian Squeeze on a new Dell R620 platform. The system could NOT bring up the RAID Array. Could not get the error output ..but it was trying to use the megaraid driver. I was able to get this to work properly with Wheezy Standard kernel. I am guessing a packport of megaraid is needed. I have a working wheezy installation so I can give you any type of diagnostic information needed. Thanks -Buford
