    I just recently got my hands on a custom built machine using only Intel
    components along with an Adaptec RAID card using HostRAID.

    After trying a stable install which of course could not find the
    drive(s) I resorted to the Debian Installer which has helped in the
    passed when I had to deal with hardware not supported by woody's boot
    disks. Sarge seems to have the necessary modules (aic7xxx etc.) but
    while it's "detecting hardware" it says that some of the modules failed
    to load – more specifically the aic7xxx, which of course results in no
    disks being found either. I figured that I might be able to load it
    manually but insmod simply returns an error from which I can tell
    nothing... Just that it fails to load. This applies to both rc2 and the
    newer daily builds...

    The hardware seems to be fine as I can install RH without a glitch and
    it runs well, so I'm starting to wonder if this module might be broken
    under sarge? Has this happened to anybody but me? I'd be very glad if
    someone could point me into the right direction on this one as I am now
    officially stuck...

    Might mention that I also tried running linux26 off the Debian
    Installer but with the same results...

    Thanks & happy holidays!

    Kind Regards,
    Didde
