Debian Linux don't recognize the Raid, see in many pages of internet
and the problem solve with module a320raid, but when I remove a

Please rephrase. I cannot figure out what your problem actually is.

When I install Debian, the Raid I don't **** correctly.

When I take out a disk, the SO don't recognize the Raid and the system
lonely a Lecture mode.

The problem is with module of kernel aic79xx, view many pages of
internet many people wrote that the problem resolve with module
a320raid, How install a new module in Debian ETCH?

Sorry for my English is very bad.

Regars of Spain!

Aha. There are two cases:
1. Debian has the module. Then you can install it directly
as any other debian package.
2. Debian does not have the module. There is a possibility to
recompile the debian kernel with the module, but frankly, I
do not know how as I use stock Kernels from www.kernel.org
that I complile myself instead of the standard Debian kernels.

As far as I can determine, a320raid is not in Debian.

It seems the current kernel sources for etch is a Debian-patched
2.6.18. (I use 2.6.27, but that is a bit in the cutting edge...)

It seems the Debian package "kernel-package" automatizes creating
debian packeges for custom kernels. For the kernel sources, you
would use the package linux-source-2.6.18 or linux-source-2.6.24
(which include the Debain pacthes) and configure them for your
hardware. Then create the new kernel package and install it.

Kernel configuration documentation is in the kernel-HOWTO:
http://www.digitalhermit.com/linux/Kernel-Build-HOWTO.html

A Debian guide is here (unfortunately outdated):
http://www.falkotimme.com/howtos/debian_kernel2.6_compile/
