Hi,
I presume you are using GRUB as your bootloader as
it is installed by default in Red Hat 8. Open the
/boot/grub/grub.conf file and modify the line similar
to [these lines are from my grub.conf file, yours will
be slightly different] --->
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-14_custom_fs ro root=LABEL=/
to the following:
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-14_custom_fs ro root=LABEL=/
hdc=noprobe hdd=noprobe
(The whole params are in a single line, no line
breaks). That should do the work. In case you are
using LILO, edit the lilo.conf file and add the line
--->
append="hdc=noprobe hdc=noprobe"
to the beginning of the file. Don't forget to run
/sbin/lilo after the change to lilo.conf.
Regards,
Bhaskar
