controller drivers needed to support Linux.

Installing the Disk Array Controller Drivers

Go to the following web site to download the appropriate Mylex Disk Array
Controller Drivers:

http://www.dandelion.com/Linux/DAC960.html

The MDAC device driver (DAC960.o) version 2.2.4 supports previous

Mylex PCI controllers

. Version 2.2.6 or higher is required for new PCI

controllers

For instructions on how to install the disk array controller drivers, see the
appropriate instructions on the web site and refer to the appropriate Linux
OS distribution reference manual.

☛

Note

Device driver version 2.2.4 is embedded in Red Hat
6.1/6.2, SuSE 6.3/6.4, Caldera 2.4, and Turbo Linux
6.0.

1. These controllers include DAC960P Series, AcceleRAID 150/

200/250, and eXtremeRAID 1100 (DAC1164P).

2. These controllers include AcceleRAID 160/170/170LP/352 and
