Hi;

I have some problem regarding installing Redhat
ES(3.0)  on prolient server DL380 it is not detecting
scsi controller. In that case can i install Linux on
IDE and then upgrade the kernel(which will detect the
scsi) and then copy the data from IDE to SCSI?

Will the procedure of copy (script descibed below)
work  for IDE to SCSI ? or any additional steps
needed?

I cant say that I have done the IDE to scsi clone but I can see no reason why it wont work. By all means if someone else knows of an obstacle please step in here.
I am really sorry for posting this here but i am a
Debian user ..only due to customer insistence i have
to install RHL and i know i will get more sensible
answers  to my technical questions here than on
Redhat.
No problems for me witht he RH thing. I am the only Debian user in the office here. All other machines are various flavours of RH from 7.3 to FC2 and I have used this script to clone Linux in all shapes and sizes. The only problems I have had have been related to getting the boot-loader to behave itself.

Best of luck

Blake
