Re: [PLUG] Linux boot and Promise Fastrak100 Raid
|
Next time you have occasion to change cables & boot using
the onboard ide controller I would suggest putting something
on the promise controller if you haven't tried that configuration
yet (for example, an IDE cdrom); if it reads the device correctly then
you'd know that the necessary kernel module / drivers are
properly installed..this will help narrow down the problem.
