Re: RHEL4?

Interesting; RedHat claims that RHEL4 supports neither firewire nor USB
storage devices. I just got a response from a RedHat engineer I
emailed asking about this, and that is exactly what he said:
uncertified, unsupported, and that if I wanted support for USB external
storage devices I'd have to install it myself. He didn't explicitly
say the same thing about firewire, which is why I'm asking here. I
could email him back, but frankly, I randomly picked his name out of an
emailing list to ask him questions already, and I didn't want to press
my luck on sending more random questions to people I didn't know. :-)

I've heard that Centos doesn't quite actually track RHEL, that it
tosses in a whole bunch of other stuff that people might want... is it
possible that this is one of those situations?

Or maybe what he actually *meant* was 'uncertified and unsupported and
nobody at redhat has the slightest idea whether it works or not', which
is... well, I'm not sure it's more reassuring, but it is at least less
irrational than intentionally removing it.
