I'm having, what I think, is an unusual problem with Red Hat 4.1.
After a successful installation using Toshiba SCSI CD-ROM, I don't have
a device file that references it. On boot up the system locates
the CD-ROM on Lun 0, target 6, at "sr0" (according to dmesg). But, when
attempting to ls /dev/sr*, I get "file not found" rather than the listing
for the driver. The Toshiba is one of those 6.7x models (XM3401, I believe).
This is bizarre in that Red Hat is replacing a working Slackware 3.0
installation on this machine. This was in hopes that upgrades would be
possible for future Linux releases.
Setup:
ASUS P55TVP4 Motherboard
Adaptec 2940 SCSI card
Two internal disk drives:
[terminated]ST31200N<<-ST31200N
Three external SCSI devices:
->>Exabyte 4200C(id:4)->>CD-ROM(id:6)->>Zip Disk(id:5) [terminated]
I've tried installing as shown above followed by removing the ZipDisk
and terminating the chain at the CD-ROM. Both yield the same results.
Any help appreciated.
