Re: Looking for a Debian Sarge installer ISO with megaraid...

[Hex Star]

The server I'm trying to get Debian Sarge 3.1r1 to work on is a HP NetServer LH3R...the specs are: Dual Pentium III 500MHz processors, 1GB RAM, 6 9GB HDs connected to the embedded HP NetRAID controller (that is what I am trying to get to work, I need it to be seen in order to install Debian because all the servers HDs are connected through it...the reason why I believe the megaraid driver will work for it is because Fedora Core 4 sees the RAID fine with that driver and has been installed via that driver, and Knoppix uses that driver as well to interface with the HDs so I believe it's the driver I need, correct me if I'm wrong though, I'm not exactly the best expert on Linux aferall, far from it :-) ) ...RAID is a RAID0 as of now because I want all 54GBs under one driver and the server currently holds no important information, and finally the server has 2 10/100 NICs ...so anyone go a idea how to get Debian to work with the embedded HP NetRAID controller? Thanks! :-)

You never mentioned the actual hardware you are using, how do you know it
needs the megaraid module? If you list the actual specifics about the
card, someone who uses it might be able to help.
