This is because the driver is in kernel-unsupported. Is this also the reason for the following install failure on FC2? # rpm -iv kernel-2.6.7-1.494.2.2.i686.rpm Preparing packages for installation... kernel-2.6.7-1.494.2.2 No module advansys found for kernel 2.6.7-1.494.2.2, aborting. mkinitrd failed / BTW, it's not good that up2date claims to have successfully installed this RPM on this machine. The errors do show up in the shell I started it from, but not in the GUI. Could you give my workaround a try? http://www.city-fan.org/ftp/contrib/drivers/advansys/ I've only built this today (5 August 2004) and tried it on a couple of machines but it's working for kernel 2.6.7-1.494.2.2 on the boxes I've tried. Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/ |
