Driver Disk for Installation


Hi All
CentOS 5x

I have a RR2680 Raid Card. I have it performing well on CentOS 5x. I wish to clean install to CentOS 6 x64 trouble is that HIghpoint only provide Driver Disks for upto 5.5. I have had no problem compiling the drivers for each Kernel update but I'm lost when it comes to creating a driver disk for CentOS 6.

I understand I need to have a machine running the same Kernel as I wish to install to compile the drivers but how do I creat a Driver Disk.

Thanks in advance.

Have you considered posting this problem
on www.centos.org ?

There may be a HowTo document already published
that addresses your problem.

Thanks for the reply. As I have received no response except your here, that may be the best idea. I am sure I am not the only person wanting to do this.
