Hi Finally i have found the SLES 9.0 SP3 has got the drivers for SAS raid cards, which i downloaded and worked painlessly. Thanks for all, those who reply and helped!!

Hi Mithun No, there was no partition in the USB disk and i did't formatted etc. these were brand new floppies written the cpq_cciss-2.6.14-7.sles9.i586.dd image with rawrite. Lately i noticed the SUSE 9.0 SP3 bootable disk has got the drivers. will go to site on Friday and confirm back the installation. Thank you very much for your help!
