HP NETRAID

[Matthew Clark]

Greetings,

I've just finished patching the 2.2.10 kernel in order to get our HP LH4(r) NetServer working with U2W Pro (AIC7890) & Symbios NCR on board SCSI (for the HP NetRaid).. what exactly is the spec of the LH Pro..?  If it's anything like the LH4 then you've got some fun ahead of you...

Regards,



Matthew Clark.

  I have a HP NetSever LH Pro with the following system specs:
   
  P-Pro 200
  2 (on board) AIC 7880's attached to a (PCI) HP NetRaid card.

  I'm trying to install Slackware 4.0 onto this box which just has been liberated from MicroSloth Network Terrorist.  I am intending to run Raid 5 on the box with the existing configuration, but I don't know what exactly to do about the HP NetRaid card.  Is that going to be something that will screw me in the end?  When booting with the AIC7XXX.S version 5.1.10 I can see both cards.  The puzzling part about this for me is that I don't see the 3 9 gigs from the AIC Bios (v 1.24).  The HP NetRaid card has the Bios which does see the drives.  I don't know what to do from here.  The system did boot from the first logical Array with NT but I cannot even see it.
   
   
  Anybody out there have one of these HP's w/ Linux on it.  I could use the help.
   
   
  Tip:  I press <Ctrl - A> for the host utility, but NADA.  HP NetRaid Comes up with its little utility and I can get to it with <CTRL - M>.
   
  what to do?
   
   
  Thanx
  andy
