It worked fine with RH 8.0, however once I upgraded, it no longer came up cleanly and I got lots of error messages during boot. I contacted RedHat and they said to try a fresh install, which I did-and got the same thing. Currently I am running RH 9.0 with the 2.4.20-9 kernel. I read through the list archives regarding other's problems with 3ware, and while at first it sounded like the same problems I am having, when I went to the Western Digital site to download the firmware (as suggested in the post), I found that it was only for 180GB and 200GB drives. All my drives in my RAID array are 120GB. The western digital firmware upgrade page is here: http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_admin=1&p_ faqid=913&p_created=1047068027 The kernel thread I am referring to is here: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=104854143005751&w=2 Any ideas? My system worked fine with RH8 and there have been no hardware changes. I checked the ARRAY's integrity with the 3ware tools and it reported ok. Here's a snipit of my boot log regarding the 3ware controller (there should be only one big partition (sda1) --cut- VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).

I did try to go back to RH8, but it just sat there after I select "no I don't want to initialize /sda1 and destroy all data). Thanks.
