Use a kickstart, `driverdisk --source=http://path/to/dd.img` Something like that is prolly avail from the grub boot menu, see the manual. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Yes, the entire install will be done from a box using this controller and 10 SATA HDDs. Probably will load a mirror from two disks partitions to have some fault tolerance them do the rest of my partitions using LVM. Just having a difficult time loading the LSi driver from the loading process. I wish this can be done from a USB stick since the machine does not have a floppy. >>> "Joseph L.
