kickstart RH9 on 1850

All

We're trying to kickstart RH9 on a 1850, the first prob was the e1000 but thats fixed by rebuilding initrd.img with the correct modules.

Now its moaning it can't find any disks. After a little googling it looks like it needs the megaraid2 driver (I've download the one from lsi)

I've added this to initrd.img and stage2.img (added to modules.cgz and entries added to pcitable) and still nothing, no errors, it just doesn't seem to load/find? the module.

Do I need a something like a modules.conf entry for it, is the order of pcitable important? What am I missing?

Cheers for any help

    sorry I forgot to mention that if I insmod megaraid2.o, it all springs into life.

    I just need to find out why it doesn't autoload.

    Cheers

    Hehe.. I'm having the exact opposite problem! I can make the megaraid2 work, but not the e1000 and it sounds like we did the same thing!

    Oh- Only difference is that I'm on a 2850.

    If I get it to work, I'll make an ISO for it and post it someplace..

    trying to kickstart a Rh8 install on the new 1850s. cant figure out the nic problem...can one of you who did this for RH9 post up some details (for a non linux guru)? I am savvy enough that I did get a kickstart install to work with PE1750 on RH8 w/the broadcom nics, but not a total linux god.

    any help is appreciated.
