The 2.4.3 kernel rpm in 1.0.1 is a modification of the redhat 7.1 kernel,
the 2.4.5 kernel is a vanilla linux kernel. We are working on getting
things going in the redhat 7.2 kernel (due out real soon now). This may
offer a new package, I am not sure if we will be packaging things as we
have done in the past yet though.

I have the system for another week before it needs to go into production. And then I have a week vacation to spain :-) I can stress test and run QA on it if you want to. It's dual processor it has highmem and I can make it crash a lot ;-)

The new mandrake (8.1) release also includes xfs, I cannot speak for
their driver support as I have not looked and tend not to use much
beyond the basics myself.

It supports aacraid as well as most other drivers found in the redhat kernels.

Hopefully other people on the list can suggest other kernel versions which
will work with your hardware.

The mandrake kernel should work fine. Fetch a tarbal of that specific release tree here.

Every program has two purposes one for which
it was written and another for which it wasn't
I use the last kind.
