Red Hat ES4 on DL380 G4 with SAS Disks
I am having a linux install problem. I have created my logical drive(s) via the Array controller (F8) startup option but Red Hat ES4 install process cannot see any of the logical drives.
Has anyone had the same problem an know a way to get Linux to see the logical drives.

RH won't boot off a RAID 5 array if memoery servers. Create a Raid 1 array in the hardware and RedHat will boot, install and recognize without problems.
I've got a few servers exactly like yours and they work well with RH.

Re: Red Hat ES4 on DL380 G4 with SAS Disks
Yeah thought of that have built as 2 x 73GB HD RAID 1 Mirrors in box 1 slot 1 and slot 2. I have created the virtual disk in the array manager but RHEL cannot see the disk. Thinking it might be the array controller (HP P400) so trying to update the firmware as we speak.

Re: Red Hat ES4 on DL380 G4 with SAS Disks
I have updated the firmware for the P400 array controller to 2.08 and also the iLO and Broadcomm Ethernet from the Firmware CD. When RHEL 4 32bit X86 version starts it still cannot see the logical volume on the SAS disks?
Any ideas?

Re: Red Hat ES4 on DL380 G4 with SAS Disks
You need to download the Smart Array driver from http://h18000.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/27186.html
and either create a diskette, or USB key. Then boot from the RH CD, and at the prompt type 'linux dd'. Then follow the instructions as the appear on the screen. At the appropriate prompt the system will load and use the new driver for the installation.

Re: Red Hat ES4 on DL380 G4 with SAS Disks
Jess I had already tried that so I downloaded a slightly earlier version and tried # linux updates dd and # linux dd. The diskm was read but found nothing to update.
I then manually chose cciss from the list and tried to install RHEL, however same result "no device to install" against.
I have exhausted every thing I can think of... Help anyone... please.
