Hi to all, and thanks for bing here!

I am building a server using Highpoint Rocket Raid 464 PCI card and eight IDE HDD's.

The tutorial is explained at http://www.finnie.org/text/terabyte/

The soft raid card's drivers are at http://wwww.highpoint-tech.com/USA/bios_rr464.htm

They have iso's for install disks for Redhat, Fedora, Suse, and Source for everyone else.

At the moment I am trying to set it up on a Edubuntu box I have for the kids.

I have folowed directions to the best of my ability for Source install and dissabled auto detection of my raid drives by adding hde=noprobe through hdl=noprobe in /boot/grub/menu.lst

title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-27-386 (recovery mode)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-27-386 root=/dev/hda1 ro single hde=noprobe hdf=noprobe hdg=noprobe hdh=noprobe hdi=noprobe hdj=noprobe hdk=noprobe hdl=noprobe
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-27-386
boot

This is as far as I can get because when I run the make file as outlined in the readme.txt all I get are errors installing.
sudo make KERNELDIR=/usr/src/linux-2.6.15-27

Here are some of the errors...

entry.c:499: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type

Could someone Dl the Source from the link above, check the makefile and readme to see whats going on?

I'm pretty lost with all these errors and I bought the card because it had Linux drivers available on the website...

Thanks!
