SuSE SLES-9 natively supports installing onto FCP disk.

The redbook you mentioned actually describes how to work around the SLES-8
install and get YaST to install directly onto an FCP disk. It's a hack,
but it works.

The same approach might also work for RHEL-3 U3 if they have included the
zfcp driver in the U3 installer kernel & initrd.

Subject
Installing on FCP






I have read how to "copy" an existing Linux image to an FCP attached
SCSI drive, then IPling it.  This is well documented in Redbook
sg246344.  I didn't read anything that explains how (or if you can)
install a fresh image onto an FCP drive.

Any thoughts?
