Hi,

Any suggestions would be appreciated on this Subject of Installing RedHat on
a SAN disk using Kickstart:

 

I have been using Kickstart to install RedHat Linux on local disks.  But a
requirement arose in our department to install Linux on a SAN disk which I
have never done before.

We will be using Emulex Card with lpfc drivers.  How could one incorporate
loading the lpfc driver upon bootup so that it could recognize the SAN disk
and install OS on this.  Should I rebuild the kernel or the initrd file to
load the lpfc drivers?  If yes, how?

Which partitions will it use to install the OS (sda/sdb or something else)?

Please advice.

 

Thanks Much in advance

 

-Mukarram.
