This is not because I want to discredit FC1 as the first Fedora release - I have one system still running with it - but once FC4 will be out, and this will happen soon in May, FC1 support by the Fedora Legacy Project will be dropped. I don't think you want to security update all components your own then in future. The difference between Fedora Core 1 and Red Hat Linux 8? Well, FC1 was the follower of RH9 and the first release after the change of Red Hat's policy regarding the free desktop distribution. Without this change it would have been named Red Hat Linux 10 (RH10). It comes with newer package versions than RH9 and of course newer than RH8. For details about FC1 please read it's release notes: http://ftp.isu.edu.tw/pub/Linux/Fedora/linux/core/1/i386/os/RELEASE-NOTES.html Discussion about your LSI controller: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-February/msg06193.html It may be wise to get a supported Adaptec SCSI controller. Either a real hardware RAID one or a normal SCSI controller and then using Linux software RAID. Depends from the budget you have.
