I think you're having the same problem I am. There is a chicken/egg problem here. I think your driver is getting installed as a loadable module. But you need the driver to either get compiled in to the kernel, or as part of the initrd (the initial glob of drivers that lilo/grub puts into a RAMDISK for the kernel to access - saves you having to rebuild the kernel). At least, this is how you fix a normal system.
I am still hoping someone can help me figure out how to do the same with Oscar... --matt > -----Original Message----- > From: Arnie Miles [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2003 1:51 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Oscar-users] Adding device drivers to an image > > > Hello: > > I'm trying to install a cluster with 4 compute nodes that use > a driver > that does not come with RH73.
