<P>I am new to Linux, so please be gentle.</P>
<P>The Promise 8350 is Linux compatable, and many drivers are provided, just not the one I need. It is a PCI Express X4 card.</P>
<P>I have Fedora Core 3 installed with Kernel 2.6.9-1, the closest Redhat driver I can find is for Kernel 2.6.9-5, it will not install due to wrong Kernel version. I have run yum kernel update, and presently the kernel running is 2.6.12-1. The driver will still not install, apparantly the Kernel must be be the exact version the driver expects. Can I override Kernel check?</P>
<P>Any suggestions. I have never recompiled a Kernel, so I would need a ton of help there if that is my only option.<BR></P>
<P>This is a new box I am working with, so total re-install is not a problem - there is no data to worry about.<BR></P></DIV></div></html>
