01 01 01 01 at OS boot with Fasttrak 100tx2
Hello all, I have a promise fasttrak 100tx2 in one system. The system hangs at boot with 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 .... However, I can boot the system from DVD or floppy. The raid is configured to raid 1. At OS installation (suse 8.0) the setup routine sees 2 hdds instead of one (raid is already configured). I use promise drivers not suse drivers. According to promise the suse drivers dont work with the 20270 series raid controller chips. Has anybody made a 100tx2 boot a suse 8.0 OS? Please help... Philipp
Actually the SuSE provided driver works just fine with my 20276. I have a pair of mirrored drives that I boot from. Boot from the CD, start as if you are going to do an install, so that the hardware detection runs and modules are loaded, then when you select the "type" of install, select "boot installed OS". Once you have the machine up and running, add this to your lilo.conf: disk = /dev/ataraid/d0 # or whatever it is detected as bios = 0x80 Then re-run lilo and try and reboot. - Herman mailinglists@belfin.ch wrote:
