In general, the Bacula Rescue CDROM has all the kernel HD drivers. The user can load the appropriate one with the standard commands (modprobe, ...). However, in general the problem is not having the driver available but configuring the drive appropriately, which is generally nontrivial. If the drive is already partitioned and formatted, then as you suggest it is just a question of loading the right driver, and if I am not mistaken, the kernel might even do this automatically when you mount the drive. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
