well i transfer the initrd on another computer and i can see the
megaraid_sas module.
another strange
when i install with DVd it works like a charm :(
but i would like to install my server with cobbler with all the task in
my kickstart done.
that s really very very strange
during the boot process
the disk are reckoknized as the system can say that the swap partition
in on /dev/root/LogVol01
but it says that /dev/root/LogVol00 where is the root partition has no
block device.
i rerun the mkinird while booting in recue mode but i got the same result.
the nash script seems ok
i guess the problems is that the lvm is not correctly detected
