Linux Driver Support

2) At the “Welcome to Fedora Linux” installation screen, a prompt labeled

“boot:” will appear at the bottom of the screen. Type in “linux dd” and then

press Enter.

3) When prompted “Do you have a driver disk?”, select “Yes”. At the “Insert

your driver disk and press OK to continue. ” prompt, insert the driver

diskette and then select “OK”.

4) The system will now load the RocketRAID driver automatically.

3 - Installing the RocketRAID 230x driver for an Exist-

ing System

Note: If a SCSI adapter is used to boot the system, make sure the RocketRAID host

adapter BIOS loads/posts after the SCSI adapter’s BIOS. It may be necessary to

move the adapter(s) to another PCI slot.

Step 1 Obtain the Driver Module

Extract the module file from the file modules.cgz (from the driver disk) using the

following commands:

# mount /dev/fd0

# cd /tmp

# gzip -dc /media/floppy/modules.cgz | cpio -idumv

Driver modules for all supported kernel versions will be extracted. The driver module

for the active kernel is located under the directory that matches the kernel version (/

tmp/‘uname –r‘/i686/rr2310_00.ko).

After extracting the driver module, load it using the following commands:

# modprobe sd_mod

# insmod rr2310_00.ko

Arrays attached to the adapter can be accessed as SCSI devices (e.g. /dev/sda).

Step 2 Mounting and Partitioning the Device

Example: A RAID array has been configured between several hard disks.
