debian scsi installation support?
folks, i would like to install debian on a dell poweredge 4300 with a PERC/2 SC raid scsi controller from AMI. as far as i know there is no support during a debian installation for this card. there is support for this from red hat for their installation, however i would prefer to use debian. there is a driver available from the manufacturer for this card, however it is not appear to be on the debian installation media. is there support planned for this card during installation in the future, or is there someway currently to bootstrap to a point where i can install the driver. your help is appreciated. if this is not the right list to post this question to, i apologize and would appreciate a pointer to the correct forum to address this issue. tia, daryl -- Daryl Williams Network Administrator mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ShareWave, Inc.

Re:/etc/hosts on one machine
you can achive this using nis. alternatevely you could create a symlink from /etc/hosts to an nfs mounted parition where you would actually keep the host file. i would however *not* recommend this (second) option. if your network went south you would not have any name resolution, if in fact you only rely on /etc/hosts. //daryl -- Daryl Williams Network Administrator mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ShareWave, Inc.

dualboot linux and NT?
folks, i have a system running linux debian hamm with kernel 2.0.34. this system has 2 IDE drives. linux is installed on the 1st disk and boot using lilo. i have windows NT on the second disk which is set as a slave IDE disk. when i try to boot windows NT from lilo i get the an error message from the system that says is cant find NTLDR. i am assuming this error message is comming from the NT boot loader. i have read the howtos on dual booting but none of them address this kind of setup with 2 disks. it looks like i might have to edit the boot.ini file on NT, but that could result in an unbootable system so i am trying to get some feedback before proceeding that down road. any ideas, tips, etc. are welcomed. thanks in advance, //daryl -- Daryl Williams Network Administrator mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ShareWave, Inc.
