Using an initrd works fine for me, you probably just forgot to put udev |
10 |
in it. |
11 |
|
12 |
My initrd basicly looks like this: |
13 |
/dev/console |
14 |
/dev/null |
15 |
/bin/busybox |
16 |
/bin/udevd |
17 |
/lib/udev/firmware.sh |
18 |
/lib/udev/udev.conf |
19 |
/lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules |
20 |
/firmware/ql2200_fw.bin |
21 |
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.dep |
22 |
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla2xxx.ko |
23 |
/linuxrc |
24 |
|
25 |
The script I used to create it is available @ |
26 |
http://porno-bullen.de/~bluebird/initrd-qla2xxx/ but don't blame me if |
27 |
it doesn't work ;) |
