Thank you for your answer:) The files I use come from a RHEL3 update5&6 driver disk image.(It do work when installing RedHat 3 ) I take the modules.cgz from it and extract it using gunzip and cpio and get some directory "2.4.21-32ELBOOT,2.4.21-32ELsmp....which contains the *.o driver modules . After I compiled and get my own *.o ,I took them replace those *o ,and gzip/cpio them into a modules.cgz file. I noticed that ,the *.o which I complied under the BOOT kernel do work when I try to ''insmod '' them during installation,I could see the system recognize the correct SAS controller and SAS HDD,but It failed when I choose FORMAT the HDD. Now ,I wonder ,if the driver image need some special file ,just like some other Linux (Turbo ) does? 2006/9/13, Connie Sieh <[log in to unmask]>: > > On Wed, 13 Sep 2006, gao fred wrote: > > > --Boundary_(ID_aurjgmbWya4F73/+ErbMJg) > > Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed > > Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT > > Content-disposition: inline > > > > I want to install the SAS driver(LSI SAS1064,1068) on a server. > > Depending on the experience ,I build a system (2.4.21-32.0.1) on a > vmware > > esx system, and compiled the source code into *.o files,and put them > into > > one modules.cgz file,and then ,I put the modules.cgz file into a > diskette > > What files did you put into modules.cgz ? > > > which include other 5 files( modules.dep,pcitable, > > the problem is , I could not install it on the SAS driver > > I want to know ,if there require any special files which should be put > into > > the driver diskette?just like rhdd6-1 and pcitable? > > I suggest you take a working driver disk image and modify it vs starting > from scratch. > > -Connie Sieh > > > > --Boundary_(ID_aurjgmbWya4F73/+ErbMJg) > > Content-type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 > > Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT > > Content-disposition: inline > > > > <div>I want to install the SAS driver(LSI SAS1064,1068) on a > server.</div> > > <div>Depending on the experience ,I build a system ( > 2.4.21-32.0.1) on a vmware esx system, and compiled the source code into > *.o files,and put them into one modules.cgz file,and then ,I put the > modules.cgz file into a diskette which include other 5 files( > > modules.dep,pcitable,</div> > > <div>the problem is , I could not install it on the SAS driver</div> > > <div>I want to know ,if there require any special files which > should be put into the driver diskette?just like rhdd6-1 and pcitable?</div> > > <div> </div> > > <div> </div> > > > > --Boundary_(ID_aurjgmbWya4F73/+ErbMJg)-- > > >
