Hi all, Recently we have upgraded our server platform. So now I have plenty of HP Netserver LM (P66 with 128+M RAM) to play with. I would be very happy if debian Linux could be installed on these machines :-)
However, I am not able to detect the SCSI harddisks. It used to be a NT server, so I boot NT, and find the following info: SCSI Adapter: AHA 274X/284X/777X Raid Controller: Mylex DAC 960, SCSI Port 1, bus num 0 When booting from debian hamm rescue diskette, the following info shows: (scsi 0) <Adaptec AIC-7770 SCSI host adapter> found at EISA slot 9 ....Twin channel, A SCSI ID 7, B SCSI ID 7, 4/255 SCBs BIOS enabled, IO Port 0x9c00, IRQ 10 IO Memory at 0x0, MMAP Memory at 0x0 Resetting Channel B Resetting Channel A Downloading sequencer code ... 414 instructions downloaded Then the machine hangs, Alt-F1, F2, F3 won't work at all. I understand that currently there is no official Mylex support yet. I also know that someone has written a beta driver for Mylex. But he has mentioned the firmware version need to be 3.X. I don't know what is mine:-( Actually I don't need Raid support. I would be very happy if Linux can just use the 5 2-G harddisk as normal SCSI harddisks. Any hints? Or I have to give up? There is no PCI slot on the machine, so cannot get another SCSI controller.... And I believe it's almost to let the management put any more money into it, unless there are some significant reward. Pls help! 128M RAM, EISA bus, 5x2=10G hd, oh, kind of good system for linux. Regards Gong Wei (CCENet) -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
