Yes, but in RedHat, you'll have to turn on the scan_all_luns option in your kernel's .config and reinstalled it after you've run make xconfig in the kernel srcs and turned it on. RedHats stock kernels do not scan anything but lun=0 unless rebuilt. However, since thats only 7.1, I'm not sure you can build one of the later kernels without updating at least the compiler packages. Personaly, this machine was a RH8.0 install at one time, but most of what I use has been brought up to presentday stuff via building tarballs, removing the rpms and replacing them with a make install of the tarball. My kde is 3.2.1, and my kernel is 2.6.5-mm3. Lets see, 7.1... If your bind hasn't been updated, IIRC there is a huge security hole that will get it rootkitted about 20 minutes after some script kiddie finds it. Just for that reason alone I'd move to a later distribution. > >[EMAIL PROTECTED] mark]$ more /proc/scsi/scsi >Attached devices: >Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 03 Lun: 00 > Vendor: SEAGATE Model: AIT-LDR Rev: L1j4 > Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 >[EMAIL PROTECTED] mark]$ > >Any ideas ?
