Re: Fedora Core3: How to make Module-Disk for Installation, Problems with megaraid

Hallo,

I have an HP LC2000 machine with an HP-NetRAID 2M controller and 5 disks
in raid 5. He runs with Suse 9.1 and the 2.6.5 kernel very well using
the megaraid (old) module.
Now I want to setup the Server with the Fedora Core3.
At startup, he loads the megaraid.mbox modul, but no harddisks are
found. Also when I add "linux acpi=off apm=off" (without quotes) in the
startup-screen.
Now I want to add the megaraid.ko module from Suse via module-disk
during the Installation manually, but I don't know, whitch format is
needed.
Or is there a chance to get the inbuild driver megaraid.mbox for
running well?

I think the FC3 megaraid driver works well, but I can't tell you for certain. Keep in mind that drivers such as that one are built against the kernel and use versioning so the megaraid driver built for the 2.6.5 kernel works ONLY with the 2.6.5 kernel. The odds are that it won't work with the kernel installed with FC3 (2.6.9-1.667) even if you did make a driver disk for it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens vitalstream com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Jimmie crack corn and I don't care...what kind of lousy attitude - - is THAT to have, huh? -- Dennis Miller - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
