I'm trying to run Linux in a Hewlett Packard LD Pro, with:
PPro 200 (one)
128Mb RAM
9G HD (SCSI ID = 0 )
CDROM ( ID = 5 )
DAT ( ID = 3 )
HP OEM EtherExpress 10/100 network card
3C905 TX network card.
At boot time, randomly detects, or not, the SCSI units, that is, sometimes
detects all of then, somtimes only the HD ( I Initially had the HD at ID 1,
and then, most of times it was not detected ).
I tried 2.0.34 and 2.1.112 with identical results. I also tried configuring
the kernel to wait 15s after resetting the host.
The diagnostic software tells me that the server is all right, and
previously the server had NT 4.0 and worked fine, and if I can't get Linux
running, my boss will ask me to install NT again.
Please, save me ! :)
Below is a dmesg of one of the few times that it detected all the devices:
Thanks in advance.
