Hello everyone,
I have a problem with mounting drive. My OS is Fedora 6 x64.
It looks like my system doesnt see new drive. Question is why.
The harddrive is hotswap SCSI. Server IBM xSeries 226.

1) I`m putting drive to the SCSI pocket.
2) Then in console I`m trying to list all devices:

How can I mount drive if I cant see it. This is original drive dedicated for that server. I think I`m doing something wrong.
Is it possible that system will not recognize the drive automaticly ?
