Installing 11.0 on IBM Xseries 346-Problem seeing hard drives


I have an IBM X-Series 346 server with scsi hard drives, when I boot 11.0 I have tried multiple kernels and I dont think 11.0 is seeing my hard drives. I need to setup my partitions but when I run cfdisk it is only seeing the cd rom.

Any help would be great.

Yes, this is why I highly recommend the 2.6 kernel if it won't detect you HDD.

Same thing happened to me, and the 2.6 kernel was the only one that worked
