Linux Installation problem

Hi everybody

I'm trying to install redhat ars2.1 onto 2 machines (HP intel servers) It boots of the CD fine but when it come to partition the disk it cannot find the internal SCSI drive. Any ideas would be much appreciated

Cheers

You'll need to give us the exact details of the server. It may simply be that your disk/RAID controller isn't supported.

i had a simaler problem on an HP proliant server. when the machine boots from the install cd if i recall correctly (working from memory) there is a way to specify aditional drivers. information on how to specify extra drivers or special commands should be available either on the cd in a readme file or when the machine boots from cd in the help menu.

hello again.

The disk controller is a Netraid-1Si. When doing an expert install and adding SCSI drivers it doesn't find this version. Any ideas where i can download it from?

Cheers

if this came with your HP system i would imagine there will be a driver for it on the cd's it shipped with or on their site.
