Hi, how could I revert to cciss driver ? I presume that the drives changes from "sda" to "cciss", so I've to change it in the fstab and so. G7 have a HP SmartArray 410. Anyway, when I edit kernel in the yast2 (yast2->System->Edit /etc/sysconfig->System->kernel->INITRD_MODULES) - there is "hpsa .........". If I change "hpsa"->"cciss" and run "mkinitrd" - is this OK ? I presume that after reboot I must say kernel that my root device is on "/dev/cciss/c0d0p3" (command root= in the grub's command line), make corrections in the fstab and reboot again. Or not ?

Hi, thanks for answer. Are you familiar about that complains ? Are that errors or only "info" that some command is unknown to hpsa array ? If I could ignore them or not.
Hi Josef
I don't use the hpsa driver, only cciss. Judging by what others say (from googling), I think you can ignore it.
I found that "sda" replaced "ccis" from some kernel - I use kernel: Linux kostnew 2.6.37.6-0.11-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2011-12-19 23:39:38 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I think it probably depends more on which controller you have - your DL380G7 has a newer one, so maybe the hpsa driver is automatically selected for that. The cciss module is certainly still available and supported in e.g. kernel 3.3.0
