Hi Sluggers, I am trying to install an IBM eserver x330/x340 with the ServerRAID driver.
I am having problems putting together a driver disk for Redhat 6.2, in spite of having "support" for the machine. I built a kickstart floppy but I do not have the drivers installed correctly (I think). The problem is, I followed some guides on the net, to modify the boot floppy initrd.img file. I added the drivers I needed, edited modinfo and pcitable and repacked the .img file. When I boot off this floppy, the ramdisk loads Ok, but I cannot seem to get the drivers to load - I get a message: "trying to insmod ips.o (Path is NULL)" or similar. I suspect it is something to do with the way I have recreated the ramdisk image. What I am asking is: 1) can someone please point me to the correct way to build a boot floppy/initrd.img file? Yes, I read the kickstart Howto, and pursued the cpio commands but I think there's something wrong with my cpio image. 2) can someone just send me a 6.2 Ramdisk initrd.img file that already has the ips.o and module for the Intel etherexpress pro 10/100 NIC? 3) a 6.2 boot floppy that will work with an x330/x340 server? --------------------------------------------- This message was sent using Endymion MailMan. http://www.endymion.com/products/mailman/ -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
