I just did a Dell server with 5.0.6 about 2 months ago. You need the BTLD
driver from Dell. You can download it from the net and make a BTLD diskette.
The one thing that was undocumented (or documented incorrectly) is the name
of the driver is "percraid", not just "perc" as docs state.
Everything went fine after the btld and I am impressed with the server
performance. I think I might start using Dell for servers since Micron
stopped making their own and now just resell HP Netservers. The Dell had a
great price too.
