Hello there

I'm trying to get SATA RAID working with the Serverworks HT1000 (Broadcom
BCM5785) chip on a Tyan
S3892 (K8HM) motherboard with an Opteron 265 CPU.

I installed Fedora Core 5 Linux (2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 #1) & tried the 64-bit
drivers
on the Tyan & raidcore sites but they're all for earlier kernel versions.
http://www.tyan.com/support/html/drivers_linux.html

So I tried with the bcraid driver SDK from the raidcore site
http://www.raidcore.com/Downloads/V2.1/index.html#LINUX
"Any kernel version that does not have a precompiled driver delivered in
these kits is unsupported. The driver source files are delivered in the
bcraid driver SDK to allow the customer build the drivers on those
unsupported kernels. "
but can't get it to build (details below). Any idea how to make it work?

Tyan & raidcore provide drivers for Fedora Core 4 or earlier as well as
SUSE & Redhat
so someone has been able to build them, at least for earlier kernels.
At worst I could install Fedora Core 4 but then I'd be stuck at that level,
wouldn't I?

Thanks

Nick

I think this error comes from
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-x86_64/include/linux/mm.h:

#ifndef CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM
/* The array of struct pages - for discontigmem use pgdat->lmem_map */
extern struct page *mem_map;
#endif


And I think that's caused by the entries in .config from which this is an
extract:

CONFIG_NUMA=y
CONFIG_K8_NUMA=y
CONFIG_X86_64_ACPI_NUMA=y
# CONFIG_NUMA_EMU is not set
CONFIG_ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE=y
CONFIG_ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_DEFAULT=y
CONFIG_ARCH_SPARSEMEM_ENABLE=y
CONFIG_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL=y
# CONFIG_FLATMEM_MANUAL is not set
CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM_MANUAL=y
# CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_MANUAL is not set
CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y
CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP=y
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES=y

Can these config values be changed to make it build (& work) without
breaking anything else?
