Description Jason 2005-05-11 15:05:15 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

Description of problem:
I have been unable to install any FC4 test version on my HP LC2000 Netserver because the kernel does not have the megaraid driver builtin, it has the newer megaraid_mbox driver which does not work on the older raid cards.

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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  download a fc4 test iso
2.  burn to cd
3.  try to install on a hp lc2000 netserver, or any one of the older lsi raid cards.
  

Actual Results:  I was unable to install FC4.

Expected Results:  I should be able to install FC4, either the kernel needs the driver builtin or I should be able to select the megaraid driver from the list of drivers.

Additional info:

This is a duplicate of bug 138590 which has been open for over six months.  I wanted to open this bug so the people who are doing the FC4 stuff are aware that the problem still exists.  I have been updating 138590, but noone seems interested in fixing it.

both old, and new modules are built.

-rwxr--r--  1 root root  68144 May 13 14:24 megaraid.ko*

-rwxr--r--  1 root root 80832 May 13 14:24 megaraid_mbox.ko*
-rwxr--r--  1 root root 24608 May 13 14:24 megaraid_mm.ko*

You should be able to select the legacy module during the installation.
I'm puzzled. Jeremy ?

No one told me the old driver came back :-)  Added megaraid to the module list
that anaconda pulls in.  megaraid_mm is just the management side and so isn't
needed during install.

Comment 3 Dave Jones 2005-06-27 23:14:01 UTC

Mass update for bugs reported against -test:
Updating version field to FC4 final. Please retest with final FC4 release if you
have not already done so. Thanks.

Comment 4 Dave Jones 2005-06-27 23:23:58 UTC

Mass update of -test bugs to update version to fc4.
(Please retest on final release, and report results if you have not already done
so).

Thanks.

Comment 5 Jason 2005-06-28 13:52:08 UTC

FC4 final works great with the HP NetRaid 1Si raid card.

Thanks for fixing this.
