Recently I got in touch with Dell R910 with FusionIO drive.
I needed to backup its content. Thus I booted CentOs live CD 6.2. But no fioX
device found in /dev/fio* ( ls /dev/fio )
Card is present
lspci | grep -i fusion

45:00.0 Mass storage controller: Fusion-io 2001 (rev 04)

Dell has this nice page http://dell.fusionio.com/ where binaries are available.
