Alrighty - here are my findings:
Desktop (HighPoint RAID controller)
No problems booting, but I got this error after keymap selection:
(something to the effect of)Cannot open /dev/tty0, no such file or dir
And when I `less` something, I get a message about a magic file. Prolly
nothing important, but I figured I would doc it anyway.
As for my RAID controller, it was not automogically modprobed, I had to
do it by hand. Once I did it though, it was fine.
Compaq Deskpro (Work box)
Same as above minus the RAID issues.
Other than that, looks good.
Cheers,
