I’m trying to do a netinstall with current Debian (Sarge)
on my new Dell SC420 server. Here’s my drive config: 2 SATA 10k RPM WD Raptor 36gig drives connected to onboard
raid configd as raid 1. Promise S150 SX4-M Raid 5 controller 3 SATA WD 200gig drives configd as a raid 5. I’m loading Debian with: linux26 ata_piix Debian is detecting my promise card and loading the sata_sx4
driver auto. The unusual thing I’m seeing is that it detects all my
drives, but states that it cannot detect a common cdrom drive and prompts me to
provide one. None of the included drivers seem to work. When loading the 2.4
kernel this doesn’t happen, but I can’t get my nic or ata_piix
drivers to work. I think it’s weird considering I’m booting by
cdrom with the netinstall disc. Any ideas? Thanx in advance. -Dade Register T-Mobile IT Admin "Reboot first, ask questions later." |
