RE: Installing on scsi raid drives

I have recently had the same problem with an Adaptec scsi raid
controller
(7901x) whereby the install would not detect the disks. Since this
Adaptec
Controller driver should have been available for this install, I had to
select "linux noprobe" to forcibly load the driver manually which
resolved
my issue - though caused another issue resulting in a kernel recompile
of a
kernel.org kernel.

These issues are generally resolved by the availability of a "driver
disk" for
A piece of hardware from the manufacturer's website, such as the HP site
under
support and drivers, if you're using HP gear.

Regards,
Geofrey.

Unfortunately, It does not see the drive. It is a working drive because
it has an older version of another Linux running on it.

I have few DL380 with hardware raid running FC6/RH4, and I didn't have

to do anything special.

I am trying to install FC6 on Compact DL380 with three discs in a
RAID 5 configuration. When I try FC6 does not see the drive. What
do I have to do for FC6 to see the hardware RAID disc?

My search has come across anything useful.

thanks
