By the way. Is the Power Edge 2450 easy to set up? I mean install RedHat 6.2, recompile etc - I am asking, because Don wrote:
As far as vendors, Dell's big Linux servers come with an Adaptec controller with a close-sourced driver, and said driver didn't link with a recompiled kernel when friends of mine tried to do so. They finally got everything figured out, but it was a pain in the rear. The problem might actually be RH's fault, not Dell's, but it was a pain regardless.
This was in the following
thread.
