aacraid on Dell PowerEdge 1800
Hello,
I've been through several of the news groups over the past few days and
haven't found an exact answer to my question.
I'm trying to install Fedora Core 3 on a Dell PowerEdge 1800 server that
I just purchased, but the version of the aacraid driver for the SATA raid controller changed and I can't install.
Just like the newsgroups state, Fedora Core 2 installs just fine. My
problem is that I can't afford to run software that is outdated. There have been several security issues lately and FC3 seems to have fixes for them.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

This is somewhat off-topic, so I'll be brief. If you can install Fedora Core 2 and the only reason you want Fedora Core 3 is newer software, "man yum" after installing the 'yum' package (or choose a different updater to suit your prefs) will be your friend. In other words, a newer OS isn't the only way to get newer software, especially on an OS that has a decent package management system (RPM in this instance). FWIW.
