When I try to install Fedora C3 on my scsi / SMP / ancient box, the discs are not recognized unless I tell the installer to "no-probe" and then manually load the drivers. If I don't do this, the installer fails to find my scsi disks even though the BIOS sees them correctly. Once the drivers are selected the installer finds the drives OK and the installation completes with no further problems. The grub boot loader is installed on the MBR. Everything completes OK until it's time to re-boot. At that point the system complains that no operating system was found. I'm assuming that the disks are not found because if I use linux rescue, the disks can't be found and the installer can't find any trace of the bootloader. I've never had to pass kernel parameters in the bootloader so if that's what I have to do, I need some help figuring out how to do that. Presumably I need to pass some info on the driver for the controller, etc. Question 1) Am I on the right track or am I missing something totally different Question 2) what do I do next? - How do I get that info. Anyone ? TIA Alex ==== -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by Avantel Systems, and is believed to be clean.
