A question to the Linux users here.... I'm trying to set up a 16 drive Debian NAS to hold our production company's footage archive. Bought a HighPoint 2680 SATA card because they claimed Debian compatibility. But their stock drivers are so old, I can't even find the distribution they match. They also have the source code so you can compile a new kernel to support the card. I tried, but being a Linux newbie, failed in all attempts. Can't even get the 'tree' downloaded, whatever that is!

If, say, I could pay one of you to compile the kernel/driver for me, is there a way you can do that and then send it to me for an easy install here? No idea if kernel files can just be swapped out... I would make space on my ftp server for you to upload the finished file(s) too.

Any chance this would work?

Thanks,
