I’m tempted to try the Oscar beta to see if this helps with the missing drives. 
Generally, are people having more luck with it?

 

However, the department I’m setting this up for, is making heavy use of Matlab 
(what a nightmare!), and who knows what kind of new troubles, maybe a show 
stopper, and will have to revert back to 5.0 anyway.

Are they all 64 bit?

OSCAR 5.0 running on FC5 64 bit

 

 

I've tried P. Mueller's Kernel… (kmod……screen after screen)

 

I've googled….put 01all.load_sata_driver into 
/var/lib/systemimager/scripts/pre-install

   The best I could find is modprobe (some module that loads sata driver) 

   Basically tried…modprobe….mptsas, mptspi, mptfc, ahci, libata…..no effect

 

Tried booting with rescue disk to see what module is loaded…saw above 'libata' 

 

Tried a bunch of the following at "preboot" stage to pass "linux acpi = off, 
pci=nommconf, all-generic-ide…."

 

Which would get past the kernel panic…sometimes…but always DISKS=0 and the 
install stops

 

Get_arch

Enumerate_disks

DISKS=0

 

I've tried UYOK, and not…

 

I don't have the luxury of all the same type systems…

 

Please help
