Re: Root device (HP Smart Array) not found with cciss (also: panic= not always working?)



Update: I have installed (thanks to "alien") the HP command line tools
for the controller and this definetly confirms that its a P400:

# hpacucli

Type "help" for a list of supported commands.
Type "exit" to close the console.
