RE: Compaq ProLiant ML350

["A. Scott White" <scottw@coderite.com>]

Thanks to everyone who has helped me with this. I'm getting closer.

I compiled a 2.2.15 kernel with Compaq Smart Array2, placed it onto the
Rescue floppy and ran the following rdev commands on the kernel image: The
install can now see the controller and the 1 logical drive (YES!!!!).

rdev -R linux 1
rdev -r linux 0
rdev -v linux -1
rdev linux /dev/ram0

However, I fear there is a problem with the kernel I compiled. I included
all the features required by
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-i386/current/doc/ch
-boot-floppy-techinfo.en.html#s-rescue-replace-kernel but, after I select my
Keyboard type, I get the message:

Can't write to temporary user settings file /tmp/keybd_settings.

I assume it means that it cannot write to the Ram Disk (it wouldn't try to
write to the floppy, and the disk isn't even partitioned yet).

Any clues as to what's up? I think I'm pretty close.
