The same happens to me on our old HP Servers. You have a Perc2 or Perc3 Raid Controller in this machine? If this is the case, then you ran into the same problem as i did. You need the old megaraid driver for this box. But the FC3 install kernel only has support for the new style driver, which indeed choosed to left out the old hardware, cause the company who wrote it decided that old hardware is bad. Luckily someone has made a driver disk for the FC3 install kernel and i own a copy of it. I'll make it available on my webserver for you. P.s. The following released kernel did also include the Driver. P.P.s RedHat also decided not to support this hardware in RHEL4. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=138590 Look at comment 22. If you cannot download the driver there here you will find the dd also. http://unixkiste.org/megaraid-dd.zip Read the comment 22 about how to use this zip file. > > Please, help > Stéphane -- Stefan Held VI has only 2 Modes: obi at unixkiste org The first one is for beeping all the time, IRCNet: Obi_Wan the second destroys the text. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- perl -e'map{print pack c,($|++?1:13)+ord,select$,,$,,$,,$|}split//,ESEL.$/' --------------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG-Keyprint = EAF2 6A65 D102 F2DB 4970 2A67 455B 98F2 572C 3FA9
