I need the 3w-xxxx.o SCSI RAID controller module to access the harddrive where my root filesystem is on so using /etc/modules won't work. With "the list of modules that automatically get loaded" I meant the /loadmodules (or so) file that I found inside the initrd image from the official Debian kernel. The image contained a /lib/modules directory with both 3w-9xxx.ko and 3w-xxxx.ko but in this file only the first was listed. Or is there at least a kernel boot option which I could use to load this module before "/" is tried to mount? The module exists in the initrd.img nevertheless... (that would be enough for me as I remember that the kernel was a Sarge one and so has very little chance to get updated) > Debian booted without problem with my 3w-9xxx card in it, and worked just > fine, btu that was an etch snapshot. The 9xxx cards are SATA RAID controller, they have a different module (3w-9xxx.o). bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
