想在HPT370/372的RAID下装Linux的都请进来帮帮忙
我用的是EPOX 4G4A+板载的HPT372和两个迈托7代40G组成的RAID 0。在RAID 0下装不了RH8.0 MD9.0 Suse 8.1，因为在Highpoint的主页上没有上述Linux的现成的驱动程序。

http://www.highpoint-tech.com/372drivers_down.htm  

但是我今天发现了一款驱动程序“Linuxopen source release for HPT372”
好像是可用于所有Linux版本，是驱动程序的源代码，只要自己编译一下就行了。苦于我E文和Linux的水平都不高，看不懂说明无法完成编译，所以想请各位帮忙看看，指点一下。以下是readme的内容：

#############################################################################
Revision History:

v1.3 05Apr2002
It is the same driver code as ver 1.3 but this version opens kernel
related driver source codes. Users can use this source code to
generate HPT37x Linux drivers with current Linux kernel version.
Then use it for HPT37x controller installation. Please follow the
detail instruction in this readme.

v1.3 02Jan2002
HPT37x Linux driver object code released for
a limited certain Linux kernel version.

v1.2 15Oct2001

v1.1 30Jul2001

v1.0 18Jul2001

1. Overview
---------------------
This package contains Linux driver source code for HighPoint
products - HPT370/370A/372/372A ATA RAID controllers.

The source code is for kernel updating purposes - you can use this
source code to build a driver, if you cannot find one in HighPoint
Linux driver release package.

NO WARRANTY

THE DRIVER SOURCE CODE HIGHPOINT PROVIDED IS FREE OF CHARGE, AND THERE IS
NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM. THERE ARE NO RESTRICTIONS ON THE USE OF THIS
FREE SOURCE CODE. HIGHPOINT DOES NOT PROVIDE ANY TECHNICAL SUPPORT IF THE

3. Build the driver
---------------------
1) Preparation
Users need to install the kernel source package before building the driver.

If you are using HPT370/370A/372 controller and the kernel contains
built-in IDE support for HPT366 chipset, you must update the kernel
before using this driver. There is no need to do this if you're using
HPT372A controller.

To remove HPT366 support, just remove the following 2 lines

{DEVID_HPT34X, "HPT34X", PCI_HPT34X, NULL, ...
{DEVID_HPT366, "HPT366", PCI_HPT366, ATA66_HPT366, ...

in "ide-pci.c" (under "drivers/ide" in 2.4 kernel, "drivers/block"
in 2.2 kernel), and then rebuild and install the new kernel.

2) Extract the driver files (example):

# mount /mnt/floppy
# mkdir /usr/src/hpt37x2
# cd /usr/src/hpt37x2
# tar xfz /mnt/floppy/hpt3xx-opensource-v13.tgz

3) Build the driver (example for RedHat 7.2 i686 type kernel):

# make KERNELDIR=/usr/src/linux-2.4.7-10 RH72=1

Available make options:

KERNELDIR=...
Specify kernel source directory.

BOOT=1
Define __BOOT_KERNEL_BOOT.

SMP=1
Define __BOOT_KERNEL_SMP for SMP kernels.

RH72=1
Build driver on Red Hat 7.2 for i686 kernel.

RH72=1 ATHLON=1
Build driver on Red Hat 7.2 for athlon kernel.


4. Using the driver
---------------------
1) Load module "scsi_mod" and "sd_mod" if they are not built into kernel:

# modprobe sd_mod

2) Load the driver.

# insmod ./hpt37x2.o


5. Upgrade the driver from hpt370.o to hpt37x2.o
--------------------------------------------------
There are two methods to upgrade hpt370 (prior to v1.2) driver to hpt37x2.o:

1) Replace all references (including initrd and /etc/modules.conf) to hpt370
with hpt37x2, and replace hpt370 modules (including initrd and
/lib/modules/.../hpt370.o) with hpt37x driver (hpt37x2.o).
HighPoint ATA RAID management software should be upgraded to v1.2 or
later to work with hpt37x2.o module.

Or

2) Name new hpt37x driver(hpt37x2.o) as hpt370.o, then overwrite hpt370
modules (including initrd and /lib/modules/.../hpt370.o) with it.
