Hello, I can't install Sarge on a HP server (NetServer LH4) because I get an error related to Symbios SCSI: error while loading "modprobe -v sym53c8xx_2".
With dmesg I get this extra info: sym0: <895> rev 0x1 om pci bus 1 device 7 function 0 irq 11 sym0: No NVRAM, ID 7, Fast-40, LVD, parity checking CACHE TEST FAILED: reg dstat-sstat2 readback ffffffff. sym0: CACHE INCORRECTLY CONFIGURED sym0: gigving up... Intel ISA PCIC probe: not found I searched the debian archives and the web but found no help. I''ve tried disabling acpi, booting with "linux acpi=off pci=noacpi" and also with "linux noapic nolapic" (I actually don't know what these mean). I was suggested using Knoppix but I don't know how to install Debian using Knoppix. Furthermore I tried booting with "linux26" but I get Kernel Panic. I don't know what what to do now and I'd prefer not to go back to RedHat. May anyone please help me? Best regards, Marco Ballini ---------- Initial Header ----------- From : "Joseph H.
