SATA Drivers HP Proliant ML110 G4


Hello. I want to install RH Enterprise 3 on HP Proliant ML110 G4. I have downloaded sata drivers from HP but it's for a floppy and the server hasn't have floppy and hasn't have option to plug it.
I have copied all drivers files from the created floppy driver to a CD, but when I'm installing linux (option: linux dd) I put the cd and It cann't take the drivers from it. It said It haven't a valid disk driver.
I tried with a pen-drive too, but I didn't go.
What Can I do?
Thanks.

Upload the .img driver to NFS server, and boot by RHEL CD,
Code:
linux dd=nfs:server.mydomain.com:/directory/drivers.img
http and ftp also are supported.

However, I do not know whether the following command would fix your issue:
Code:
linux dd=hd:sdx:/home/drivers.img
sdx represents removable usb driver. Say again, I'm NOT sure of this solution, but you could try and I'm very pleasure to hear the result.

Good luck.
Phillip

Hi. Thanks for your answer but "dd=hd:.. " doesn't go. A friend has let me an usb-floppy drive and then I can put the drivers with the floppy.
