C.3.1. No devices found to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux Error Message

If you receive an error message stating No devices found to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux, there is probably a SCSI controller that is not being recognized by the installation program.

Additionally, make sure that you format the DASDs using the dasdfmt command within a Linux root shell, instead of formatting the DASDs using CMS.

Check your hardware vendor's website to determine if a driver diskette image is available that fixes your problem. For more general information on driver diskettes, refer to Appendix E, Driver Media.
