You can try by adding insmod=<local raid driver> to the cmdline in your pxe config file. That way the local raid driver will be loaded into the kernel before the san drivers. The local raid disks will then be discovered first and named sda.

I want to bring up an autoyast environment with SLES 9. The Systems have a local Raid and "SAN" Disk. Now i have the following Problem, the installation setup will find the SAN Disk at first. But I will install the linux on the local Raid Disk. Can anybody tell me how I can setup autoyast so that it will use the Raid Disk as sda?
I know It's alos possible to connect the systems later to the san but the other way I will like more.

I've found that re-setting the INITRD_MODULES order in /etc/sysconfig/kernel helps. Push the HBA driver to the end of the list and re-do your ram disk to use this new configuration. It should help. For example: INITRD_MODULES="cciss reiserfs qla2xxx" For use with autoyast, you'll need to run mkinitrd to get the new setting for use. It's also recommended to set HOTPLUG_USE_SUBFS=no as well.
