Two Small Questions.
« on: August 28, 2000, 04:48:10 AM »
The First, my cleint requires approx 300 GB of Seiemic data on a linux box, what raid cards(if any ) do  you think e-smith can support for 4 X 75GB IBM EIDE Drives.

The second is Firstname.Lastname email aliases more than 12 characters, has anyone had success with the rpm from http://e-smith.gormand.com.au/4.0-preview/ ?

Any help in these matters would be great.

If you have a RAID card which looks like a standard IDE controller
(i.e. the RAID is done by the card), there should be no issue. If a driver
is required to build the RAID devices, you will need to add this -
e-smith doesn't currently have direct support for RAID cards.

Plenty of success. Please ensure you are running
e-smith-fullname-alias-0.3-3 or you will encounter an issue when
deleting users.
