Description Warren Togami 2004-10-24 21:40:23 UTC

Description of problem:
Compaq cciss.ko SCSI RAID on /dev/cciss/c0p0 failed to install GRUB
during an installation of FC3-3.1.  I had to manually boot into the
rescue disc and use grub-install, and subsequently it worked great. 
This will be a HUGE problem for RHEL4.

Test Hardware:
Compaq Proliant DL380

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
FC3-3.1

Comment 1 Warren Togami 2004-10-24 21:43:54 UTC

Oops, the above should be /dev/ccis/c0d0 instead of c0p0.

Comment 2 Warren Togami 2004-10-24 21:47:29 UTC

This may be a duplicate of Bug #123249, could anyone please confirm?

Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2004-10-25 15:02:40 UTC

My cciss machine just installed and booted fine.  Are there any scsi
disks on the system so maybe the mapping wasn't right?

Comment 4 Warren Togami 2004-10-26 13:49:22 UTC

AFAIK there were no additional controllers and definitely no disks
that could be plugged in using /dev/sdX.

This bug sounds very similar to Bug #125808 which was closed NOTABUG.

After I left, the customer installed RHEL3 U3 and apparently it worked
fine, so this is going to be a problem when they try the same with
RHEL4.  Want me to visit their site again, or borrow a server, to do
more intensive testing?

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 125808 ***

Comment 6 Warren Togami 2004-10-30 10:44:49 UTC

I doubt we can fix this for FC3.  Tracking in Bug #125808 for RHEL4.
