In the KOTOR loading things it says that hyperdrive was brought to the planets that later became the Republic by an Alien race, so it might be the Rakata, but somehow I don't think it was them. They seem to stupid. Also, that whole things about aliens bringing it to them dosen't make much sense because, well, it just dosen't seem right to me. I think that the Rakata might have used a more primitive version of Dooku Ship on AOTC. That was supposed to acheive velocity's around hypersaptial because it ran on the POWER OF THE DARKSIDE(a real life possible solution to the rising gas price's, I might add.)
