This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_000D_01BED44F.7F500C90 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I have a HP NetSever LH Pro with the following system specs: P-Pro 200 2 (on board) AIC 7880's attached to a (PCI) HP NetRaid card. I'm trying to install Slackware 4.0 onto this box which just has been liberated from MicroSloth Network Terrorist. I am intending to run Raid 5 on the box with the existing configuration, but I don't know what exactly to do about the HP NetRaid card. Is that going to be something that will screw me in the end? When booting with the AIC7XXX.S version 5.1.10 I can see both cards. The puzzling part about this for me is that I don't see the 3 9 gigs from the AIC Bios (v 1.24). The HP NetRaid card has the Bios which does see the drives. I don't know what to do from here. The system did boot from the first logical Array with NT but I cannot even see it. Anybody out there have one of these HP's w/ Linux on it. I could use the help. Tip: I press <Ctrl - A> for the host utility, but NADA. HP NetRaid Comes up with its little utility and I can get to it with <CTRL - M>. what to do? Thanx andy ------=_NextPart_000_000D_01BED44F.7F500C90 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Content-Type" CONTENT=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D'"MSHTML 4.72.3509.100"' name=3DGENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><SPAN class=3D662360219-22071999><FONT color=3D#000000 face=3DArial = size=3D2>I have=20 a HP NetSever LH Pro with the following system = specs:</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D662360219-22071999><FONT color=3D#000000 face=3DArial = size=3D2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D662360219-22071999><FONT color=3D#000000 face=3DArial = size=3D2>P-Pro=20 200</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D662360219-22071999><FONT color=3D#000000 face=3DArial = size=3D2>2 (on=20 board) AIC 7880's attached to a (PCI) HP NetRaid = card.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D662360219-22071999><FONT color=3D#000000 face=3DArial = size=3D2>I'm=20 trying to install Slackware 4.0 onto this box which just has been = liberated from=20 MicroSloth Network Terrorist.
