[Lula] Dell PE 850 Server: CERC RAID controller and Debian

[Cheeto]

I believe that CERC you're referring to is a rebadged Adaptec 2610SA
which should be supported by the aacraid driver.  I'm amazed they only
charge $260 for it, that's below MSRP.  Usually dell marks those things
up (like the perc4's which were really rebadged LSI MegaRaid cards where
they sold it for double the MSRP).
Hope that helps,
Michael Hsu
