We need to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 4 Update 1 (AMD64/Intel EM64T) which
is NOT supported by DELL<br>
OpenManage Server Assistant tool; that contains SAS driver.<br>
So I have to go with RedHat CDs. I downloaded the SAS driver and I have it<br>
over a CD.<br>
<br>
I search in RHN knowledgebase but nothing.<br>
<br>
-Is there any kernel parameter that i can pass while installation?<br>
I tried while installation.<br>
1-[# Linux dd updates],<br>
2- I got prompt for any existing Disk Driver.<br>
3- I force it to go for the CDROM.<br>
4- prompt "no driver found, insert disk driver"<br>
<br>
<br>

Your help will appreciate<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
