I apologize in advance as this is not really at CentOS specific issue,
but I don't know where else to turn. We are configuring some Dell
1850s for a customer, and they have all been configured with a QLogic
dual channel HBA. But no storage has been (or will be in the near
future) attached to these HBAs. During the boot process (both for the
kickstart and after the OS has been installed), there is a 2 minute
delay (1 minute for each channel) while the qla2300.o module is loaded
and the HBA probes for any attached storage.
How can I configure the kernel to ignore the QLogic HBA? It's not that
critical for the kickstart process (although that would be nice too).
Thanks,
Alfred
