Boot to UP version of kernel to build against:To build UP module, type:make -f Makefile.rhThe file created is 3w-xxxx.oTo build SMP module, type:make smp -f Makefile.rhThe file created is 3w-xxxx.smpTo build Enterprise module, type:make ent -f Makefile.rhThe file created is 3w-xxxx.ent5 Copy the module as follows:For 2.4 kernels, copy module to:/lib/modules/***kernel string***/kernel/drivers/scsi/3w-xxxx.oRAID array initializationRAID 0 arrays do not need to be initialized and are immediatelyavailable for use with full performance when created.RAID 1 and 10 arrays are not initialized when created and areimmediately available for use with full performance when created.The first time the array is verified (via the BIOS or 3ware 3DM),
