So no I have a minimal 2005.0 LiveCD booted and am logged in via ssh. I'm following the installation handbook section 4 regarding partitioning. However I don't seem to have my SCSI drives available. I have 3 drives in the system as follows:
160 GB IDE drive attached to the PATA (or IDE) connector on a Promise 150 SATA controller. 18 GB SCSI drive attached to an Advansys card 36 GB SCSI drive attached to an Advansys card
The only device I seem to have is /dev/sda1 which fdisk reports as a 163
GB drive. So I assume that this is my IDE drive seen as a SCSI device
because it's attached to the Promise SATA controller?
Probably.
And if my
assumption is correct, how can I enable the Advansys controller? If
possible, I'd prefer to do it without rebooting because I won't be near
the console for about 7 more hours. I'm at work. System is at home.
Try "modprobe advansys" to load the driver...
Thanks for the reply. However been there, done that. :) It seems the advansys.ko is not on the 2005.0 CD. Maybe it's on an older one? And if so, which?
Thanks,
Drew
