Hi,
just got a new machine to play with at work for a while...
Intel L440GX+ w/ 4 550MHz Xeon processors, 4G RAM, 6 18G SCSI-disks on
an Amaquest CTL-95U2 RAID controller.
This controller is currently config'ed to show these disks as 2 normal
SCSI disks (~8G and ~78G) using RAID 5. Win2000 came with the system,
installed on the first 4G of the first (8G) disk and sees both disks
correctly. Decided to make a test installation of RH6.1 (not my
decision...) on the remaining 4G... No real problems but the second
disk (78G) is not found by Linux, not by fdisk, nor at boot time.
The first is correctly seen as /dev/sda...
Anyone with any experience on this sort of stuff?
I saw the kernel option 'Probe all LUNs', but the kernel that I made
with that option on wouldn't work (probably something else I missed) and
then I had to leave. Is that option something that might help?
Would reconfiguring the controller to act like one disk be a reasonable
option?
BTW, how much memory can Linux use on this type of card? free only
reports ~1G RAM (or does free report RAM/processor?)
