I have not upgraded to 6.x yet, but have been running 5.5 very
successfully on over twenty PE850's in production. CERC SATA RAID
(configured as two-drive mirrors) was a cinch, as was the onboard NIC
(bge: Broadcom BCM5721 Gigabit Ethernetb). I don't see any reason why
6.x would cause any problems. Nothing special to note on installation.
