Hello. I've tried (and more or less suceded) in making a set of installation disks that will function on Dell PowerEdge 2550 (perc3/di chip).
I started with the disk images for dell 2450 found on http://www.merilus.com/~kevin/aacraid.html compiled a new kernel (2.2.19 + aacraid + PERCID patch) and replaced the original 'LINUX' on the rescue disk, run rdev and started installing. Now the thing is, for some reason the root gets mounted read only while using my new kernel (the first step when you set keyboard fails). If I remount the root read write, I can install as normal and everything (seems like it) is working. My question is; why does is mount the root ro? Using the original kernel mounts as it should (of course since I didn't make it:-). If anyone got any ideas, please share them with me. Best regards, Emil Btw: In case someone got a free tip how to get the Ge interface work it would be appreceated to...
