Can someone please help me with installation of Redat 7.3 on older Compaq
Prosignia 500 with original Smart Array Controler. I have tried almost
everything from http://www.geocities.com/rlcomp_1999/smartstart.html and
from http://www.cpqlinux.com, but as Linux newbie I didnt came very far.
Closest I came with following:
linux text mem=exactmap mem=640K@0 mem=63M@1M expert
On warning that no hard drives have been found:
The following devices have been found:
Symbios/NCR 53C8xx
AMD PCnet32
Add device
I select:
Compaq Smart/2 RAID Controller (cpqarray) or Compaq Smart Array 5xxx
Controller (cciss)
with module parameters eisa=0x1000 or without parameters result is the same:
alt+F3 : failed to insert /tmp/cpqarray.o or cciss.o
and this is it. I stuck at this point and I really dont know what else to
do.
Thanks in advance.
Peter
