Hello all,
I got this tiny problem, I bought an Asus m2n-vm hdmi mobo two weeks ago and it seems not to be fully working under centos amd64(4.6, 4.9, 5.0, 5.1) or even redhat EL 5.0 i386, amd64, I tried to install centos and redhat EL using the linux dd and linux noprobe commands to load driver disk from nVidia guys but it doesn't detect the HD I'm using their diferent versions of the driver RHEL 4_U5, 4_U6 , 5, 5_U1 , then if I change the IDE config in the BIOS from SATA to AHCI, it detects the SATA HD during the install process, but when it boots up, it tells me to "reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key", but nothing happens...then I change the BIOS IDE setting back to SATA, and it boots but it gives me a kernel panic saying "could not mount such file system, not such file or directory", it doesn't load up the drivers at the linux noprobe way, nor even the forcedeth or the sata_nv.
I read in ubuntu and fedora forums that they're supported in Ubuntu 7.04, 7.10, 8.04 and Fedora 7, 8, 9, haven't test them yet though, I want to stick with Centos bcos thats my working enviroment.
What can I do?
Here are my specs: Asus msn-vm hdmi Chipset Nvidia GeForce7050PV/nForce630a AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800 2.5Ghz Dual core 6Gb RAM Kingston 250 HDD SATA2 LG IDE DVD-ROM
I'm trying to use this setup in my home lab to test out Xen technology and techniques.
cheers,
Victor.
P.S. sorry for my english
forgot to say:
I was able to install RHEL 4 with no install parameters, but I can't upgrade using the RHEL 5 DVD, still the same issue..no HD detected in install process.
any suggestions?
thanks in advance.
Victor.
