Ok, here is the situation: I have IBM netfinity server with Adaptec raid 3200S in it. It seems to be supported under 4.2, but here is the problem: 1) I booted off the 4.1 CDROM - that works fine but it doesnt have the right driver. 2) I made bootable floppy from the site (though it was 4.1) , took 4.2 kernel sources, recompiled the kernel and put it on that floppy. I used 4.2 mfsroot floppy. 3) At boot after loading kernel i get a panic (right after it displays the system name and kernel compile info) regardless of using mfsroot or not. Anything i am missing? Is there anything special to be compiled into kernel to boot off the floppy? It certainly works off the CDROM... BTW anyone has any experience running this raid card?
