I'm trying to install Gentoo using gentoo-alpha-2004.0-20040313.iso on an AlphaServer 1200. This machine has a Mylex DAC960P RAID controller but there is no kernel module that I can modprobe. Is it possible to have this module added to future LiveCD's? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from Live CD on an Alpha with a DAC960 Raid controller 2. modprobe dac960 Actual Results: modprobe: Can't locate module dac960 Expected Results: Module to be installed and device available Here is a dump of /proc/pci if it helps.

Hi Mark. We just released a new experimental livecd yesterday which includes dac960 support - please test gentoo-alpha-2004.2-20040730.iso and reopen the bug if it still doesn't work.
