I have been trying to install CentOS 5.4 on a Intel SR1530SHS, Intel
S3200SH
mainboard.. It has a 3 x 1TB sata hotswap drives with LSI software raid onboard.
fake-raid alert!
I had configured the LSI to have Sata0 and Sata1 with raid 1 and the
third
drive as a hotspare drive.
Okay...
Format the harddisk and installation was a breeze. The server rebooted
into
a blank screen and the cursor just keep blinking.
Drivers for the LSI fake-raid not included in initrd maybe?
Please advise.
Reinstall and use md raid?
Will I lose the hotswap capability?
That depends on the controller and driver...
Just what LSI board is this? A 3ware board or megaraid or what?!?!
It should be an Intel MegaSR
