Hiya! I'm trying to get SuSE 9.2 up and running from a system with an Adaptec 2100S SCSI RAID controller, and I want to run the system entirely on the SCSI arrays.
No luck. Kernel panic after the first reboot after installation. It comes to mounting volumes, then setting up hardware dependencies and wham, there it dies.
After some Googling I ran into Mark's guide for 9.1, does this apply to 9.2 and/or SLES9 as well? http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux-e/2004-Aug/2476.html

I looked this over briefly and wonder if he could have booted to the rescue DVD and run the commands: # mkdir /mnt/temp # mount /dev/i2o/hda3 /mnt/temp # mount /dev/i2o/hda1 /mnt/temp/boot add the i2o modules to the INITRD_MODULES line in /mnt/temp/etc/sysconfig/kernel in line INITRD_MODULES="i2o_core i2o_block" (plus other modules you need) # chroot /mnt/temp # mkinitrd Would seem to be much easier than adding an IDE drive and installing the OS to do the same thing. Isn't that the purpose of chroot, to temporarily change you root filesystem tree to something else? -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 * Only reply to the list please* "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
