I have looked in the RH errata and I cant find any boot images at all! (I
looked at http://www.redhat.com/support/errata) Surely there must be a way
for me to install Linux onto a drive that is on a UDMA100 controller!

I'm trying to install RH7 on an IBM 27gb drive. The problem is that I
have an Asus A7V motherboard which has an integrated Promise UDMA100
controller...which the hard drive is hooked upto. When I try to install
RH7, it says there is no device to install Linux onto. How do I get the
installer to "see" the hard drive on my Promise controller?
Check the RH errata. I am pretty sure there is a boot img for ATA66/100.

I disagree with this one sorry. Win2k can be rock solid, mines been up
and
running for 1 month. The only time it goes down is updates and
thunderstorms. I might also add the Linux box has been up for 2 weeks.
Course that's also how long I've had it running Linux.
But come on, you can't be seriously saying that learning Linux is as easy
to
learn as windows?
Linux is much easier. If you learned unix 20 years ago you would realize
it is all very stable and sensible, while Microsoft changes the way
windows does things every year or two for no particular reason
and you have to learn it all over again.
Not to mention that there is no consistency in the way things are
configured/located/run within each windows release itself.

Subject: Intel Providence boot failure with 2.2.14
From: Charles Roten [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm having _quite_ a bit of trouble with 2.2 kernels and an Intel
Providence PR440FX motherboard, mounting 288 MB of physical memory.
The problem _seems_ to be centered about some sort of catastrophic
interaction between the kernel and the (admittedly flaky) integrated
Adaptec 7880 SCSI controller. I have it throttled back to fast/wide
att the moment, and it uses Adaptec BIOS 1.25.
Target 0: Seagate ST39173W
Target 1: Quantum XP34300W
Target 4: Exabyte 8505 XL
Target 6: Plextor 32X CDROM
Basically, I cannot get a stable kernel, past 2.038 (which seems
to work fine) to boot.
RedHat 5.2 installs just fine. But no species of RedHat 6.x will
install or upgrade. The install diskette and the SCSI controller
don't like each other.
I installed RedHat 5.2, and built a 2.2.14 kernel on top of it.
Here is the /usr/src/linux/.config file I worked up to do this.
