For drives that have the Lightscribe funtionality, the labeling functionality is not supported. footnote 5 - Hardware RAID is not supported on Linux Systems and this includes the Promise SATA Raid Card, Onboard SATA Chipset Raid, Adaptec 2120S SCSI Raid Card, LSI 20320 A-R SCSI

Card, Onboard SCSI Chipset Raid. The Linux kernel, with built-in software RAID, provides excellent functionality and performance. It is a good alternative to hardware-based RAID. footnote 6 - 285 NVS PCI card may be used alone or with another card. See instructions at http://hp.com/support/linux_user_manual -> 'Multi-Monitor Configurations on HP Linux Workstations'. footnote 7 - Mixed hard drives are not offered on the preload. Use SATA or SCSI, not both. We do offer mixed drives on the HPIKL (FreeDos) configuration.

footnote 8 - The ATI v5100 is not supported due to Vesa driver issues during install. Please refer to the Release Notes Chapter in http://www.hp.com/support/linux_user_manual for instructions on how to install the ATI driver. footnote 9 - Keyboard/Mouse interface must be either PS2 or USB; mixing is not supported

This Month's Change Log: Will be offering Red Hat WS 4 U4 64bit preload on xw4300, xw4400, xw6200, xw6400, xw8200, xw8400, xw9300, xw9400. Please refer to the Release Notes Chapter in http://www.hp.com/support/linux_user_manual.
