If I use the 2nd option below, what is the syntax to have dd look in a place other than a floppy for the drivers? In other words, I have server with USB and Cd-rom only, and no usb floppy available, but I need to have the raid drivers installed at system build time. I tried using dd but only get the option for it to search a floppy for the drivers. I am using the bootimg from a rhel4.5 cd and other than the lack of raid drivers, I can get the server built using kickstart via ftp option. If this is not possible, I can try option 1. Thanks for any ideas. -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Shabazian, Chip Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2008 5:18 PM To: Discussion list about Kickstart Subject: RE: How to rebuild an Anaconda initrd/kernel with updated drivers? Only two ways I know of: 1) Lots of work to rebuild with your nic drivers 2) put the drivers on the CD/Flash that you are using for the install and use dd to load them If you are using PXEBoot, you've gotta go with #1 -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Riggs, Ben Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2008 2:13 PM To: Discussion list about Kickstart Subject: How to rebuild an Anaconda initrd/kernel with updated drivers? We have new motherboards with onboard NICs which aren't recognized by the fedora 7 installer initrd/kernel. Naturally, not having a NIC makes using network drivers impossible. Anyone have the skinny, or a link?
