Hi,
I am trying to install RedHat 6.0 in an IBM Netfinity 5000 server.
I have a single hard drive at address 0 attached to the internal (B)
channel of the motherboard mounted AIC-7895 controller, and a single
tape drive at address 1 attached to the external (A) channel of the
same controller.
When I run the RedHat 5.2 install process from CD-ROM I have no trouble
finding the controller and hard drive and installing, all using default
auto-probe methods.
When I run the RedHat 6.0 install the SCSI controller is not found via
autoprobe, and I have not yet figured out what boot options I should
try to make this work. One significant difference between the installs
is that this one must be done via NFS as I have not yet received my
Official RedHat install package (it IS on order) nor do I have the
wherewithal to cut my own until my new Jaz drive arrives (also on
order). The built-in network interface is discovered without even
prompting me.
I also have the optional IBM ServeRAID 3L controller installed and
hooked up to the main hot-swap drive array. I realize that to use the
RAID controller, I will have to build my own kernel using the BETA
issue driver being provided by IBM in Germany.
