Re: [Xen-devel] xen + debian packages + megaraid driver

For anyone who may be marginally interested in my problem, I've
broadened the scope to include all 2.6.10 kernels (not just the
Debianized ones) and the patches that come with xen-2.0.4-src.tgz

Is *anyone* running xen on a machine with a RAID device? I'm assuming
yes; how did you do it? Do you have to use an initrd? Even if so, what
magic kernel configuration did you use to get the driver built?

Thanks for any help... this situation is really puzzling.
