Hi, I'm trying to install Debian Linux on a Compaq Prosignia VS. I cannot find any info on the Compaq Site on installing Linux in any flavor in this kind of machine.
I get trough the boot proces pretty easily until a partition needs to be made and the system finds out it cannot find the HDD. Probably it doesn't recognize the SCSI-controller. The only clue I can find inside the system is a chip with NCR printed on it. I've tried to use the boot-argument for an NCR-based SCSI controller : "sym53c8xx=safe:y" However without any result. I get an error "Could not find kernel image: sym53c8x.x=s" Can anybody help me? In my opinion it's a shame to throw away this server while it still is good enough for Linux. If you need any additional information about the machine, let me know. Best regards Marcel Verdonk [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
