Is this an scsi controller? We compiled in scsi-support for |
12 |
adaptec/symbios/ncr controllers. All other |
13 |
controllers are avaliable as modules. |
14 |
So typing modprob [HPT366 controler module] should work. |

After you have configured everything as described in the install-guide, copy |
16 |
the linux-sources-2.4.1-_pre8.tbz2 to your root disk. Chroot to that |
17 |
partition, install the kernel package ( ">pkgmerge |
18 |
linux-sources-2.4.1_pre8.tbz2"), |
19 |
cd to /usr/src/linux , build and install your kernel. Leave the chrooted |
20 |
environment and configure the bootmanager. |
