I am trying to set up a server with sarge and stock kernel 2.6.8-2, asus a8v motherboard and two PCI card highpoint rocketraid 1520 sata cards. each card provides 2 sata channels for 2 sata hard drives.
I did a standard sarge install without the highpoint rocketraid and now when I add it on to the system I am getting a kernel oops as soon as the kernel tries to load the hpt366 module. has anyone got this working? Can you tell me what you did? I would like to try the open source hpt302 module available as source from the highpoint people. I see from the instructions on the highpoint web site that I should compile the hpt302.ko module from source. After I do that, what do I do to install it? I must do everything with the hard drives disconnected, otherwise I kernel oops. So I can compile the kernel module ( I install kernel-headers for 2.6.8-2, make symlink for /usr/src/linux to the kernel-headers directory, run make for the modules etc...) then i can do insmod hpt302.ko (i hope )or so. The I must reboot and attach hard drive to controller. The what next? How an I disable the hpt366 module from running. Do i add hpt302 to /etc/modules? what else do I need to do?
