[Oscar-users] OSCAR 5.0 install on Dell PowerEdge 1950 , RHEL4-U3 problem

rong about why this is failing here, and do I need to go back a step (this looks similar to the problem I've seen before where the disk controller was not recognized by the SIS installer minikernel)? Has anyone installed OSCAR 5.0 on Dell PE1950s? Cheers, Jason -------
