hi Chris
it seems that there is no kernel modul available for you controller. I think you ne to load aacraid. Try to change during the installation (select language oder keyboard) to console and type modprobe aacraid. Have you checked the hardware compatibility list? Look here http://linux.dell.com

Hi Joe I figured that was the problem but i can not figure why SLES9 would have the kernel module and SLES10 SP1 does not? I have the older PERC2/SC and i have tried to load megaraid and megaraid_mbox and megaraid_mm and aacraid to no avail. I have flashed the BIOS and the RAID card firmware to no avail.
IIANM SLES9 uses the 2.4 kernel
You are mistaken - SLES 9 uses the 2.6.5 family of kernels.
which supported the controller and SLES10SP1 uses the 2.6 kernel which does not have support for the controller. I had the same problem on my HP ProLiant ML330 G3, the onboard controller worked with the 2.4 kernel but not the 2.6 because LSI wouldn't port the driver over.
Can the OP confirm which driver SLES 9 is using to access the RAID disks? It could well be that it's an old piece of kit and as such the driver got deprecated in the later versions of the kernel.
