    You, you, you.

    YOU are addressing this message as if the mailing list is responsible for the issues you are having.
    I did not do any of the following that you claim I did:

    1) Selecting the stack size.

    2) Choosing not to include Advansys support.

    3) Prevent you from recompiling with an 8K stack.

    Also, it is not my job to figure out when YOU joined the list.

    It seems the "I" in your title of CIO does not mean "Information".

    Well First of all I was merely restating the problem exists and if you
    checked when I joined the list it was about 15 minutes ago(

    ). Then I was wondering why things are progressing downhill in Core 2
    since I have nothing but problems in my server center since starting a
    move to Core 2 (since stopped). First you do not have support for the
    advansys module in the install script and have not since RH 9. How the
    hell are those of us who use and love the SCSI boards based on the
    advansys chipset supposed to install on systems using SCSI drives
    attached to those cards? I have several boxes with advansys cards in
    them with drives attached. Next you did not allow me to recompile my
    kernel with the 8k stack size by choosing to not allow that as an option
    in the build menu I had to go DL a new kernel source to rebuild my
    kernel with this option(Bugs: 120446 124018 111232). I want a distro
    that simplifies my life as an administrator not makes things orders of
    magnitude more difficult!
