For Centos4.4 I've got the 586 and 686 drivers on 2 floppies so far - recipe follows... Hope this helps someone. I'll try this on my HP and Acer, neither of which will install without intervention. I'll post part 2 of the recipe if it works out. # recipe part 1 - make the driver disks using #http://www.tuxyturvy.com/blog/index.php?/archives/4-Installing-RHEL4-on-Systems-with-Legacy-Megaraid-Drivers.html # modified for Centos4.4 as described in this thread #http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2005-August/010021.html # # Using Centos4.4Final i386 Disk 1 of 4 # # START # Install Centos4.4 disk 1 of 4 minimal on an old system # with floppy and PCI HD and net access mkdir /usr/src/software cd /usr/src/software wget http://www.tuxyturvy.com/files/megaraid2.tar.bz2 mkdir /usr/src/megaraid cd /usr/src/megaraid tar jxvfp /usr/src/sofware/megaraid2.tar.bz2 yum install gcc yum install kernel-devel-2.6.9-42.EL.i586 make -C /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.EL/build SUBDIRS=/usr/src/megaraid modules # # copy megaraid.ko to a floppy and label it megaraid-586 # mformat a: mount /media/floppy cp /usr/src/megaraid.ko /media/floppy umount /media/floppy # # then clean out the kernel-devel...to make way for the 686 version rpm -e kernel-devel yum install kernel-devel-2.6.9-42.EL.i686 # cd ../usr/src mv megaraid megaraid-586 mkdir megaraid cd megaraid tar jxvfp /usr/src/sofware/megaraid2.tar.bz2 make -C /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.EL/build SUBDIRS=/usr/src/megaraid modules # # then copy megaraid.ko to a floppy and label it megaraid-686 mformat a: mount /media/floppy cp /usr/src/megaraid.ko /media/floppy umount /media/floppy # # Take the floppies to the scsi system and follow recipe part 2 # I'll post that if it works out. -- ___________ David Booth
