This compressed tarball contains the Linux DKMS support for a variety of different Linux distributions. Using DKMS on a Linux Development Build Environment allows the user to build and install drivers for that system, build drivers for different systems, and make driver diskettes from a set of built drivers. Installation Instruction: The aacraid-dkms-1.1.5.2400.tgz package includes two RPMs:
dkms-2.0.5-1.noarch.rpm and
aacraid-1.1.5-2400dkms.noarch.rpm
Download both RPM files onto a temporary directory (/tmp) Change to /tmp directory and untar the package:
cd /tmp
tar xvzf aacraid-1.1.5.2400.tgz
Install the rpms:
rpm -Uvh dkms-2.0.5-1.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh aacraid-1.1.5-2400dkms.noarch.rpm
Use the various dkms commands to accomplish your goals: Build and install a driver:
dkms add -m aacraid -v 1.1.5.2400
dkms build -m aacraid -v 1.1.5.2400
dkms install -m aacraid -v 1.1.5.2400
Build a driver for a different system other than native:
dkms build -k 2.4.21-4.ELsmp -m aacraid -v 1.1.5.2400
dkms install -k 2.4.21-4.ELsmp -m aacraid -v 1.1.5.2400
Make a driver disk from a set of built drivers:
dkms mkdriverdisk -k 2.4.21-4.ELBOOT,2.4.21-4.ELsmp,2.4.21-4.EL \ -d redhat -m aacraid -v 1.1.5.2400
Check current status of dkms:
dkms status

Requirements: 1. aacraid-driverdisk-1.1.5-2400-i686.img won't work with the "linux noprobe dd" option during a fresh Linux installation. Please use "linux dd" instead.
2. A logical drive/array has to be configured before installing the linux driver using aacraid-driverdisk-1.1.5-2400-i686.img file during a fresh Linux installation. If there are no logical disks configured on the card. The following message appears:
No devices of the appropriate type were found on the driver disk.
Notes: The driver RPM is in DKMS format and requires user to install dkms rpm (dkms-2.0.5-1.noarch.rpm) first.
Additional support documentation:
man dkms

This compressed tarball contains Linux driver diskette images for a variety of different Linux distributions. The following is a list of the image files contained in this file: RHAS 2.1, RHEL 3, RHEL 4, SuSE 7.3 through 9.2, SLES 8 and 9, United Linux 1, CentOS3 and 4, RH Fedora Core 1 and 2. Some of these are not officially supported, but are being provided for your convenience. Installation Instruction: These driver diskettes are intended for use with new Linux installations. Determine the correct kernel version and identify which diskette images contain drivers for that kernel. If the file ends in .img, create the appropriate driver diskette using rawrite (under Linux) or RawWrite for Windows (under Windows - see http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/rawwrite.htm to download). If the file ends in .iso, create a CD using CD writing software like Nero, RecordNow!, or Roxio EZCD Creator.

The driver diskette or CD is typically supplied during the installation process. For older Red Hat distributions, start the installation process using 'linux dd' after booting from the installation CD. Consult the manual for the intended Linux distribution to idenitfy how to utilize a driver diskette or CD.
Requirements: These driver diskettes should only be used with modern Adaptec RAID controllers running firmware 7348 or newer. These include the 2120S, 2130SLP, 2200S, 2230SLP, 2410SA, 2810SA, and 21610SA.
