1. Topic:
There is a new driver disk available for the ICP Vortex for Red Hat Linux 6.1.

2. Problem description:
Users can't install off a SCSI CDROM connected to an ICP Vortex controller (if they have this configuration) because the boot disks shipped do not have the driver for ICP Vortex turned on in the early stage of the installer. Therefore they have to use a driver disk.

3. Bug IDs fixed:

4. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 6.1, Intel

5. Obsoleted by:
None

6. Conflicts with:
None

7. RPMs required:

Intel:

ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.1/en/os/i386/

gdth-driver-disk.img

8. Solution:
One has to boot with "linux dd" to be asked about a driver disk. Using this image as the driver disk will work with the ICP Vortex driver.

9. Verification:
