    Hello list,

    If I am posting in the wrong place, please let me know.

    I just got Core 2 Test 2 and I am trying to install on a Compaq (HP) DL
    360 with Compaq Integrated Smart Array 5i Controller. When I just try
    to do a default install it hangs at a blue (pre gui) screen with a
    message "Loading cciss driver". If I ctl-alt-F4 I see a screen that
    tells me "Aborting ACPI routing and to try acpi=off".

    So, if I do that,
    Boot> linux acpi=off
    I can seem to boot all the way through to the gui but when I go to
    partition using disk druid it tells me I have no devices. And yet if I
    go to a shell and view the dmesg, I can see it finds my disks at c0d0p1.
    If I try to fdisk that device it fails.

    Any suggestions?
