HP ML150 G6 E5520 HP SAS/SATA HPM AP SERVER
Specs
Intel Xeon E5520
4GB (2x2GB 10600E Unbuffered Advanced ECC memory
Embedded HP NC107i PCI Express Gigabit Server Adapter
HP Smart Array P410 controller w/256mb cache Raid Controller
RAID(0/1/1+0/5/5+0)
HP 250GB 7.2k HP MDL SATA

According to the system builder Debian don't support the RAID
built-in to the G6. Debian can't recognize the raid and don't continue to install
Since G5 is phase out. My question... if it is possible if we install a third party RAID controller similar to the built RAID in G5 for us to install Debian OS?

Thanks

I'm not familiar with LINUX OS so I'm looking for a person having the same server specs experiencing the same problem. I've checked the G6 server delivered to us. The raid card is actually an add-in card to support higher level of RAID. Its a more complicated situation since we are not responsible for the server configuration. We don't have enough resources and time test it.
