I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 onto a RAID array (RocketRAID 222x) but the manufacturer only lists 8.04 drivers. They do have open source drivers but I'm not too familiar with building a driver during the OS install (is this possible?). The open source driver is listed to support 2.6.31 and of course 10.04 uses 2.6.32-28.

I may be stuck, hoping someone might have some experience with this raid card.

Thanks.

Have you tried to install as it is? If the open source driver isn't supported any more, it may be in the kernel.

No go as is, it doesn't detect any drives during install. I believe the driver I need is hptmv6. Just at a loss for trying to build a driver from the source, during install. or finding other means for Ubuntu to recognize this raid card and it's drives.
