Hi, I am unable to install Debian on a Supermicro server configured with 2 sata harddrives connected to an Adaptec 2420SA serial RAID pci card.
Although the exact sequence of events differ, I have tried both the stable and testing installers, each with both 2.4 and 2.6 kernel choices. In every case installation fails when the installer cannot find a harddrive to partition. The "testing" installation, for example, contains lines aacraid: disagrees about version of symbol register_chrdev aacraid: unknown symbol register_chrdev in its dmesg. What I *can* do: the RAID array works fine under Knoppix and Ubuntu. Another failure: I partitioned and mkfs'ed the array under Knoppix, debootstrap'ed sarge, installed and compiled a kernel on the array under chroot. But start-up fails when VFS is unable to open sda. Can anyone tell me what Knoppix does differently than the installer? Thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
