Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-source
When using any of the install CDs (ubuntu-server 6.10, ubuntu-desktop
6.10) on HP NetServer LP 1000r, megaraid_mbox/megaraid_mm drivers crash
at random point during installation (sometimes right at 'disk
detection', sometimes in the middle of mke2fs step for partititons).
The solution seems to be to use megaraid.ko ("legacy megaraid" driver),
but the problem is that it doesn't recognize the controllers as
supported.
So, I used the patch from
http://www.suseblog.com/?p=156
against 2.6.17-10-generic megaraid.c and megaraid.h, which allowed me to
boot, partition, format and install Ubuntu on the system.
I'll attach a patch here for reference.
** Affects: linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu)
