\_ SMTP quoth Craig White on 10/3/2001 10:46 as having spake thusly: \_ \_ So far - no traction on Redhat Seawolf list so I'll post this here too. Get nubbier tires.... \_ 1. Boot from hard drive What does it do when it tries to boot, besides 'not'? \_ 2. Be able to use hardware RAID - I set it up with software RAID because \_ it listed both hard drives and it shouldn't have. I used the hardware \_ RAID with WinNT with no problem so I know that it works. This seems like a problem with the card, no? If the card is reporting multiple drives to the bios, then the card might be afu. Knee jerk scsi: check the term + ids, particularly wrt to 'raid'. (eg: does the controller wan the raided drives to be the same id ... I think that'd be *wrong*, but hey...). Is your bios currentish? \_ 3. Use SMP - it is a dual processor. I would compile a kernel but it \_ won't work until I can boot from hard drive. Er. What does successfull booting have to do with building a kernel? ... also, the linear mode in lilo.conf might be throwing it off...? David
