RE: [Oscar-users] IDE hard drive bug

[Lombard, David N]

Hi Paul!   Welcome to our world...   Anyway, I just asked Tom about the differences between the head node, where this drive apparently shows up as /dev/hda, and the clients, where it’s not found.   Do you know of any differences?   Does the BIOS see the disk?   Do you see the device fly by as the kernel’s booting on the client?  It may help to set up a serial console and record it to a file via minicom or some such...   -- David N.

I have been trying to setup a 4 node cluster machine (head node + 3 client nodes). However i ran into the following problem.   On the compute node i use the floppy to boot up and let the system imager (version 3.3.2) to load the kernel. However it does not load the ide hard drive modules. When I do a # ls /dev/hda* it does not show anything. I have an IDE hard drive.   Because of the above during the boot up process by the system imager on the client node I get the following error when running the script for that client node.   "DISK0 not found"   I talked with Thomas Naughton and discussed the bug with him.   Many Thanks Paul
