Re: Can't boot from Adaptec 2010s

Sorry, I don't have installed redhat. It is a debian woody 3.0
with kernel 2.4.24 (self-compiled). It is not a problem of the kernel.
I think it is a problem of the bootloader (lilo version 22.2)
or something...
The bootflag is set to the /boot partition and the MBR is written
by lilo (/sbin/lilo -v)
At the time we boot via bootdisk. this works fine for the moment.
(The kernel on the bootdisk is the same; it works great!)
Thanks valli

It could be that your root disk doesn't have an MBR record or that your
RAID adaptor doesn't have the boot loader on it.  Have you tried a
different distro such as redhat?

Thanks

Hello all,
I successfully installed my linux (Debian with a 2.4.24 vanilla kernel)
on my Fujitsu Siemens Primergy TX200 server containing a 2010s (Raid 1).

The only problem i have is that I can't boot from my raid. When I boot
from bootdisks the raid works fine!
My bootloader is lilo. The bootpartition on my disks has a ext3
filesystem.
When I boot the machine I can't see nothing from lilo, the machine just
hangs.
(The PhoenixBios recognizes 'I2O OSM' as a HardDrive)

What could be the problem?

Thanx for answering
valli
