Hi,
I just purchased Dell PowerEdge 2300. I want to install red hat
5.0, but I can not. The device to
store file system can not be found. Apparently, the scsi drive is not
supported. Dell PowerEdge 2300 has
an integrated Adaptec AIC 7890 Ultra2/low-voltage differential SCSI host
adapter. I am looking at
linux newsgroup, somebody said "the new Adaptec 7890 chipset is
supported in the new development kernels, but we need to compile one of
the new kernels with support for the chipset and then create a
boot/root install diskset with the new kernel.", somebody said "No, the
chipset it's not supported yet,".
If redhat does not support AIC 7890 Ultra2 SCSI controller, Could you
suggest what controller I can use
for Seagate ST34573LC)? If I switch to another Dell computer that has
similar function to PowerEdge 2300,
Could you suggest another model of Dell for me?
Your help is very much appreciated!
Jinpeng Xie
