I started trying to work on the system; however, we ran into a few |
2 |
problems with it. I haven't been able to get the 2007.0 CD working |
3 |
because of the aforementioned issue - it also doesn't list an obppath, |
4 |
loading, or data files for the QLA controller under /sys/devices - so |
5 |
following the instructions previously provided is impossible. :-< |

I have located the device: |

|
9 |
/sys/devices/pci0000\:00/0000\:00\:04.0 |

uDev is on the 2007.0 CD, and loads the module, but has problems. |
12 |
Here's the dmesg output from the 2007.0 CD using the 2.6.20 kernel: |

I also managed to find the CD I used on another system - a 2006.1 CD. |
17 |
It boots and detects the QLA controller just fine - but uses the older |
18 |
method where the firmware is built into the kernel. However, it is |
19 |
unable to spin up the hard drive for some reason - it does detect it. |

Here's the dmesg output from the 2006.1 CD using the 2.6.17 kernel: |

Any tips? Is the hard drive bad? I'm not sure where to go from here, |
25 |
and I need to get this at least with the basic OS on it before the |
26 |
29th. |

TIA, |
