Paul,
Random deletion has issues with this version of the driver. Sreenivas will
release the next version tomorrow morning with the fix.
Thanks

As I understand it you want this new driver to replace the one in the
kernel, correct?
If so, would it be possible to rename the output file to megaraid.o,
instead of megaraid_nm.o. The reason for this is that then the various
vendor tools that produce initrd images would then most likely not need
to be changed.
If not, then a new name is good ;-)
Cheers,
Paul
