step by step :-) I booted now with 'linux dd=nfs:<ip>:<path> nostorage nousb ksdevice=eth0' nostorage to disable probing for the SAS-devices and nousb to keep my keyboard working. This works nearly perfect: anaconda loads the driver disk and shows me the text of the file 'modinfo' within the devices list (LSI Logic megaraid_sas Driver ver v00.00.02.03). But when I try to load the driver I can see on the second console (alt+F2) that he can't find the kernel module. Is the installer not able to copy the contents of the disk-image into a specific directory? What is happening when anaconda is loading the disk? Is it neccessary to extract 'modules.cgz' on the driver disk first? -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: centos-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:centos-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] Im Auftrag von Matt Hyclak Gesendet: Montag, 17.
