Hi I have a problem with initrd I think. I have grabbed the partly source drivers for this promise from this site http://www.antgel.co.uk/compsci/linux/promise_raid.shtml
The thing I did was I started installing gentoo from the live cd, and the force loaded the driver for Suse linux provided by promise. It worked and I could use my raid array. I then finished installing gentoo. The problem is now when I have compiled the driver (it is the same driver as that compiled for suse). The driver works, I can use it with the live cd where it only warns about the kernel version as it should. I have then loop mounted the initrd, and add'ed ft3xx.o to modules/storage/ unmounted it, but when i boot the driver doesn't get loaded. When i specify the inird as rootfs, I'll get an prompt. When I try to load the module by hand it complains about many things it can't find in the kernel. I just think it is weird it is working on the live cd and not when running from the initrd. Anyone having some good suggestions? Best Regards Hasse -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
