The best place that I know of for information about ANY Dell server and
Linux is at http://www.domsch.com/linux/. There are instructions there on
how to get recent versions of the aacraid driver to recognize this card
during boot, assuming a fairly recent distribution.

The onboard network adapter is Broadcom NeXtreme Gigabit adapter. I believe
this is supported in recent distributions/kernels by the tg3 driver and Dell
provides binary drivers from Broadcom as well.

Later,
Tom
