this is not really your problem. (i.e. this "error" occurs even in a "normal properly configured boot" I am guessing that you're /partition is on scsi. You need an initrd that includes the necessary scsi driver. therefore if you swap scsi cards and / is on the scsi card that you swapped out, you will need to boot the install cd in rescue mode, mount your root partitions (which will probably happen automagically), and then chroot to your normal system, make a new initrd (man mkinitrd), and then update either lilo.conf, or grub.conf as appropriate. (and it you're using lilo, you will need to re-lilo.) you probably should backup the old initrd file, just incase you think you might go back to it. rgds, -Greg > > in looking at the log it did not log all the error messages. > from what i saw it was still trying to load the old ahaxxx drivers. > and /sbin/lsmod shows the advansys module loaded > > > > _______________________________________________ > Redhat-list mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Gregory Hosler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 29-Jul-02 Time: 09:35:49 If each of us have one object, and we exchange them, then each of us still has one object.
